Hello my friends...

Welcome to the 59th run of "Sunday Favorites"!!!

I hope that you are having a wonderful weekend! We are having crazy weather here in Colorado...severe storms...but all is well! A mini cold front blew in last night and it is only supposed to get up to 57 degrees today...can you believe that? Looks like we are only going to be in the 60's for the next few days...where did summer go? Hehe! So goes life in Colorful Colorado!

I have been working on "summerizing" our master bedroom this week..having sooo much fun! I hope to post about a few of the new changes on Monday...so stop back by for a visit and check it out! Well my friends...I'm so very happy to see you today for Sunday Favorites! I am revisiting a post that I did about my blue teacups...hope you enjoy!

Have a wonderful weekend!!!

Hello my friends...I hope that you're having a marvelous Monday!
*
Today I am joining in with the "Blue Monday" and "Mosaic Monday" parties. You will find the credits for these lovely parties at the end of my post!
*
Ohhh my...it seems that I am always running behind! Today I wanted to show you another one of my "After Christmas Sale" treasure finds. Yes...I'm just now getting around to taking a few photos and posting these little pretties! I hope that you enjoy!!!
*
Lovin' Those Teacup Blues...

*
I found these pretty teacups and saucers at Tender Heart Treasures during their "after Christmas sale". I had a two-fold reason for purchasing these pretty blue and white teacups...1) I really do need teacups! 2) I have nothing...absolutely nothing...blue! Well...they seemed like great reasons...don't you think? Hehe!
*
There were four different patterns available. I just looked at the Tender Heart Treasures online website in hopes of telling you the names of each pattern, however...they were no longer available! I will include the website address for this sweet little shop...they have some really pretty things over there and are very reasonably priced!

Teacup #1

*

*
I just love the sweet bird and beautiful flowers on this teacup! It reminds me of Spring. Ahhh...Spring!!!
*
For the photos, I am using a beautiful lacy metal charger plate that was a gift from my dearest friend, Gloria (Happy To Be). Gloria, I have already gotten "miles of use" out of these sweet charger plates...I just love them!!! Thank you again, my sweet friend! The white napkins, with the gorgeous lace, came from Target...from their Shabby Chic product line. And...once again, we are at the table in my red French Country dining room.
*
*
Teacup #2

*

*
Oooh...another sweet little bird...he is resting upon a rose! Do you see the little butterfly?
*
*
Teacup #3

*

*
This teacup has a beautiful bouquet of flowers!
*
*
Teacup #4

*

*
More lovely flowers! I love the pattern of the flowers on the saucer! Sooo pretty!!!
*
*
Lovin' Those Teacup Blues...

*
The 10 oz. porcelain teacups come with a porcelain infuser...so sweet for brewing the perfect cup of tea! Here in the photo mosaic, you can see the teacups with their infuser and lid.
*
I did mention that I found these pretties during the "after Christmas sale"...didn't I? They were on sale for $4.95 each. Not too bad!!!
*

Well my sweet friends...are you ready for a cup of tea?
*

Hi Chari, Those teacups are simply stunning! I, too, love the pattern on the saucer of teacup #4. Such a perfect shade of blue; and blue is my favorite color. Glad you shared this little gem again, Chari. I do so enjoy Sunday favorites; it was a great idea you had! Hope you are doing well and that you have a great week!

Chari I love this setting- actually every setting that you do is just wonderful!

Hope all is well with you- been missing you!

We're off for a week for a conference- I am so tired that I wish I could just stay home and sleep but the tickets are all paid for! WE had a camp and 3 different sets of guests this week so it has been crazy busy here! Always good though!

Oh how beautiful! Each one is just precious! Love the blues:)

Hi Chari -- I haven't re-posted anything here for quite a while, but we were moved to do so today. I hope you don't mind something that is a little different from your usual sunday favorites.

Hope all is well in your part of Colorado.

Lori E said...

I don't have anything blue either. Your teacups are so pretty especially with the white napkins. You did a really good job on the mosaic too.
Thanks for hosting again Chari. I haven't been around for a while and have missed you all.

Such lovely blue and white tea cups. A perfect color and pattern.
Thanks for hosting Sunday Favorites. This is my first time participating.

Keetha Broyles said...

Happy Sunday, my friend!

I hope you realize that EVERY SINGLE TIME I see that gorgeous white teapot with the three dimensional flowers I go directly into covet mode.

Not that I need another teapot - - - but you get the idea.

I love those fabulous blue and white tea cups. They are lovely with their variety of flowers. What a treat to drink from them.

Beth said...

Hi Chari, I just checked and I'm not seeing Mr. Linky now either. That is unfortunate, as I want to visit the other participants.
You have a great week, Chari! I'm looking forward to your next post.
Hugs and blessings, Beth

Chari at Happy To Design said...

Hi everyone...

Just wanted to write a little note...it seems that Mr.Linky has done a disappearing act on our Sunday Favorites party today! I do apologize for the inconvenience...but it's beyond my control! Hopefully they will get it back up and running soon!

Please check back by later!

So sorry...thanks guys!!!

Hi Chari -- thanks for visiting -- I did try to visit some of the links yesterday and couldn't -- I just thought it was me or my computer (it usually is). Glad everything is back up now and I will go visit some of the other links.
