A New Teapot for Tea in the Garden




Hello Dear Tea Friends,

Today  our tea time will be under the covered deck.  




I wanted to share with you the latest addition to my Sadler collection.  This pale pink rosed teapot.


I had been wanting one for a long time and I splurged.  Hubby said to think of it as an investment.  Isn't he a keeper?



The teacup is a mismatched cup and saucer.








The roses are just starting to bud. 





Thank you for  stopping by today!




I do hope that you have

A Wonderful Week!



See you next time!

Karen

Roses and Ivy for Tea Time


Hello Dear Tea Friends!

I'm so excited!  The roses are in bloom at the cottage! 



And it really is the perfect day for an outdoor tea time.




The teapots are both Arthur Wood.

Do you remember that I broke one like the one below? 


(I was bad girl and ordered another one on e-bay.)




The teacups both have roses and ivy patterns. 












The pink roses are just starting to open.




Thank you for stopping by for 

"Roses and Ivy for Tea Time!"




Happy Victoria Day Weekend!

See you next week!

Karen

A Coral Tea Time





Hello My Favourite Tea Friends!


Today I wanted to share the coral roses that my dear son and sweet daughter-in-law gave me for Mother's Day!





I have two pale coral teacups that are amongst my favourites.





This deeper coral teacup is a Paragon.  





The rosy teapot is Made in China.


The wee creamer is an Aynsley.



This post will be short because my sweet daughter moves out this week (an emotional time) and my son and daughter-in-law  is also moving to a larger home. I will still have my eldest son at home. I'm not an empty nester yet.

Are you busy too?




My precious twenty-two year old daughter got me this pretty potted rose bush for Mother's Day. 



 and this sweet tea towel.


My daughter is  a busy gal.... babysitting my niece's children,  working at Costco and going to Simon Fraser University. She is thankfully just moving down the street so I hope I will see her almost every day. 


My children  know how much I LOVE roses! 

 It's so nice to feel like a queen for a day!



 Since the weather is so nice I have also been busy  spending more time outdoors gardening, planting and of course watering.

 Is this your favourite time of year?


Have a rosy week!
Karen
