Tea time at my aunt's garden

This week, I'm sharing a teacup and teapot that I passed on to my aunt (who baked my awesome birthday cake), as part of my ongoing efforts to downsize my collection. My aunt kindly agreed to let me do a tea time photo shoot in her lovely garden.

The unmarked teapot is decorated with dainty yellow roses and has serious Royal Albert vibes. The teacup (made by Paragon) and saucer are mismatched.

It's easier to part with my tea pretties when I know that they're going to a good home!

I'm joining Tea in the Garden this week.

  6. Hi Margie
    I love your aunts bright bistro set. You are so generous to part with your pretties. The teapot definitely looks like a Royal Albert. Mismatched teacups and saucers often look better than the matches. Your paragon is a beauty. Have a great week! Karen
