I fell in love with this darling little teacup and saucer I found at a flea market a few weeks ago. It is about 3 1/2" across. (you can click on any picture to make it larger) See the sticker still on it? $2.00!! It is Salisbury bone china from England. It has the sweetest, most delicate little roses on it, and trimmed in gold. I had to have it!
This is another sweet little cup I found at an antique store for $4. It is slightly larger than the first one. Just the prettiest little roses, and I love the muted shade of aqua mixed in. I don't know what it is about these little teacups, I just love them. This one doesn't have any markings on it, but it is so pretty. This is a creamer my daughter found in an antique store, and bought for my birthday. It is marked Elizabethan, fine bone china England. I love the shape of the spout, and pretty roses.
Well, that is my post. I hope you enjoyed viewing some of my treasures. Don't forget to stop by Kim's and visit the other participants for Tea Things Tuesday! thanks for coming by for a visit.

Beautiful cups Debbie. I can't believe you found them for the price you did, usually they are much more expensive. The creamer is very pretty!

oh my....have to get a hanky...I'm drooling
You have some really pretty tea things. I love miniature cups and am trying to collect them but at the moment have the grand total of one! I am determined to keep searching!
You really found some beautiful bargains, Debbie! Isn't it wonderful to come across such beauties at flea markets and thrift stores, and for such amazing prices?
Your creamer is beautiful...what a sweet daughter you have. You know, I could be wrong, but I think your creamer matches Kim's teapot!
Have a wonderful Tuesday, and thanks for your encouraging comment on my post...one day a a time!
God bless,
Mary
Oh that first sweet teacup is calling to me :0)
You got a couple great bargains and a sweet gift! I have a hard time walking away from creamers in my thrifting outings...
So pretty Debbie. The rose design on that first teacup looks just like the one on the teacup I showed today... :)
I need to find some tea cups and saucers , i am planning a tea party for my princess in may. The lil kiddie ones will not do. Yet I will have no use for him after. good will and thirft store is a good idea!
Hi Debbie !!! Oooh, I am so excited that you have a blog so I can come visit YOU now :) It is just lovely. I have just spent the last half hour poring over all of your lovely pictures. Your home is beautiful and all of your treasures. The China you have with the sweet roses is lovely, Love that doll bed with the tatting on it :), and the best part is the sweet pictures of You and your Husband and Daughter!! You are very pretty, and have a great family !! :) Thank you SO much for the gorgeous card you sent me when I was so ill, I cherish it and have it hanging over my desk on my bulletin board so that I can see it every day :) That was so sweet of you to think of me :) I am SO slow in returning Thank Yous, Please know how much I appreciate you :) Hugs :) :)
How beautiful! I love tea cups and saucers but I never seem to find any for that wonderful price you did. Thanks for sharing ~
These tea things are lovely. I love all things tea! Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Hello my friend! These little treasures are just too sweet. Very, very pretty! I've heard there are some great antique and thrift stores in the towns surrounding Hooterville so the first chance I get, I will scope them out so we can do some shopping the next time you visit. :)
Oh, Debbie, what a buy! Tea cups and saucers here cost about $25.00.
If you are lucky...perhaps $16.00 but not like the ones you have found. I have a shelf over my couch full of them...and just pickup up a sweet one with a hummingbird on it. I thought of putting it in a "giveaway" as I know many generous bloggers are doing from time to time...and would you believe that this selfish woman balked?? Yes, Yes I did! I am so ashamed. I mean I have a lot of them. I need to do some serious soul searching! :):)
Hugs,
Mona
