I was given a gift by a sweet friend this weekend, that gave me the idea for this post. It is a lovely old china teapot that was her mothers.Isn't it pretty? So anyway I set a tea table just for me. I used my old crocheted table cloth and my crystal dishes and I just happened to have a tea cup with volets on it that matched the tea pot. This was a good place to sit and relax.
I hope you can see the details in the dishes- my chandeleir was giving a glare on everything. I picked up the plates at NUTS-which means neat used things for sale- how clever is that? I am joining Susan at http://www.betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/ and Katherine at http://www.ladykatherineteaparlor.blogspot.com/ and Marty at http://www.astrollthrulife.blogspot.com/ for their wonderful parties this week. This post is for my friend Betty in memory of her sweet mother- that everyone called granny.

The tea set is gorgeous, Vicky. How nice of your friend to give it to you. I love your tea cup with purple flowers too and the glass plates....Christine
The tea pot and cup are very beautiful. I love your collection of glass/crystal plates, and am envious of your crocheted tablecloth.
That is such a gorgeous tablecloth! It sets off all of your treasures so nicely.
Hi Vicki! Thanks so much for coming over for a visit at my blog! I joined yours as well and did a double take at one of your pictures because I am pretty sure we have the same curtains (the plaid) in our house. Kindred spirits!
