Tea Cup Tuesday




I hope this finds you well after a long weekend! I just had to share this selection that my daughter Krissy picked out for her bridal registry~ I love it. This is designed by Ralph Lauren and called Mandarin Blue. This tea set is a complement to the China set. They even have vases. How could I not start her out with this set as a bridal gift? Shh, can you keep a secret? I thought it would be fitting if this was one of the gifts I purchased on her list and gave to her. Her grandma had collected cups and tea pots and we split up her collection throughout the family. I love that it has the Asian flair with flowers in the bottom of each cup! Quite a few places carry the design such as Macy's. I hope we can have quite a few games of scrabble over tea when I get to travel to her home and visit to carry on the love of tea and games gifted to us by my mom~

  16. Finally! I have been unable to comment till today!. Computer kept glitching. This is a lovely set. Mum passed Grandma’s china on to me as a wedding gift last year. I’m sure that you daughter is going to love this set. The flowers in the cups just complete them. Take care.
