Tea Things Tuesday


Hello my tea loving friends and welcome to "Tea Things Tuesday".

With that Fall chill in the air, this is the perfect time of year for pulling out all of that pretty china and putting it to good use by brewing up a pot of hot fragrant tea and snacking on some cookies, cakes or scones.

I did just that over the weekend using this beautiful rose teapot. The colors of the roses on this teapot range from a pale pink to a deep red color. What a pretty combination...

This teapot has a few matching companion pieces in my collection, including a single teacup and a desert plate. All three pieces feature the same floral design, but were made by different china manufacturing companies.

A lovely set for sure. To see even more lovely tea things, you can pay a visit to these lovely ladies as well to see what they are sharing with us this week.

I'm also adding MckLinky to my "Tea Things Tuesday" post for the very first time, both to test it out and make sure it's working the way I hope it should, and also to allow anyone else who would like to share something for "Tea Things Tuesday" to easily join in. Please feel free to join us if you wish.

    That one is gorgeos, Kim! So nice that you have the matching cup and plate...perfect for having a hot cup of tea and a scone or dessert when relaxing after work, or to begin the day. I really like the shape of the teapot...just like teacups, there is usually a name for the shape. You have a great collection...always look forward to seeing what you'll show us in the coming week!

    God bless,
    Mary

    This tea set is so pretty, the roses just jump out at you. That is so interesting that the pieces match and yet are from different companies. Very fun!

    Kim, I love this set! Beautiful! I love the ruffly looking top on the teapot. The set just looks so feminine. Of course you can't go wrong with anything that has pink roses.
    Hugs, Debi

    Good morning Kim!!
    I love, love, love that gorgeous teapot. Your Tuesdays are always the best...even though it is Friday morning. This is the first chance I've had a little time off from work to look at any blogs.

    I'm so excited I used your McLinky and I did it right.

    ♥ Rebecca
