Recently on a shopping trip
I found this cute tea cup and saucer
I bought this tea cup
because I like it. . .
It isn't made by a fancy designer
Just a plain old "made in China"
Oh, it isn't vintage, nor is it a collectible.
Just a cute tea cup to add to my collection
I call it the Bee Tea Cup
It has Bees on it and inside the cup.
It is colorful and it reminds me of a
Spring Time Tea Party.
It may not be vintage nor a collectible now
But someday it will be. . .
My Grandmother's Tea Cup wasn't vintage nor collectible
When she bought hers. . .
It is with time and making memories that this
Tea Cup will become
Vintage and Collectible.
Remember NO tea or coffee for me
Hot Chocolate is fine.

I love your tea cup, and the thing I like best about it is the little bee...so sweet! I love tea cups too but I drink hot chocolate in mine! ;D
ReplyDeleteSO pretty!! I love the bee inside too :)
ReplyDeleteHello Karie,
ReplyDeleteyou are absolutely right. Things don't need to be vintage nor collectibles. A nice design is just wonderful and your cup is really nice designed. A real treasure. Wish you a wonderful week.
Best greetings, Johanna
You're so right about the tea cup. The memories make it special. My tea cups I love best are the ones that have a story.
ReplyDeleteI have the same teacup and I love it. Love the bee, the butterflies, the hummingbird, the dainty flowers. It has put a spring in my step and is destined to be a favorite! Happy Tea Day!
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way! When I buy it, it might be new, but will be antique to my grandchildren!
ReplyDeleteYour cup is very spinglike and pretty with all those flowers. I have "made in Japan" tea cups that are really lovely too.
Thank you so much for sharing.
Hugs,
Terri
That is so pretty, Karie! I love that the detail is even on the inside of the cup!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a sweet tea cup, Karie! I agree with you about tea cups being antiques someday. I just hope my grandchildren will have an appreciation for them! I only have one little granddaughter who is only five months old right now but who I hope to pass my china on to someday. Thank you for sharing and for joining me for tea. Have a lovely day.

That is so cute! A really adorable cup this is! You are right, for it to become vintage, it must wait a while. Everything we like and is pretty is special anyways. And your grandchildren will one day say the same thing! :)
ReplyDeleteHugs,
I'm glad you bought the tea cup. Who cares if it's not something with a fancy name! It's pretty! Linda

Hi Karie,
ReplyDeleteI just love your springtime teacup with that adorable bee! All that matters is what is beautiful to you and over time the teacup will become a vintage memory. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Karie! I'm looking for a particular bee teacup and I think this might be it. Does it say what company it's from?
