Make Mine Pink!

Hello dear friends~ Those of you who have stopped by this past week will have already seen this teacup. However, some of you haven't seen it so I'm sharing it again.


I love pink! My wonderful hubby chose this teacup for me when we were out and about browsing the antique shops.

Contrary to what some of you may think, he does not share my love for teacups and china.
He is however learning to use the right side of his brain so he can  appreciate it and he likes to accompany me to the shops. 
And while I indulge myself in looking at all the treasures found there, he likes to find other things such as old books and magazines.

So, having straightened you all out on that fact, here is one of my newest teacups.

It is the perfect shade of pink!


It is an Anysley for all you teacup lovers out there. And doesn't it go splendidly with my Rose Chintz!




Tea really does taste better in a china cup!



If you would like to see more of this teacup, please check out my previous post. Thank you so much for coming by for a visit.

I am sharing this post with:

Sharing from my heart~ Sandi

  1. Hi Sandi! That beautiful cup is indeed the perfect shade of pink. I would love some of that pattern to go with my rose chintz. I'm sure I told you but I have three generations of Rose Chintz in my collection. We don't use it every day but I never grow tired of it.

    Wishing you a wonderful day! – g

  10. My dear husband, although he enjoys antiquing with me, still says there should be a hardware or tire store next to every antique shop or gift shop! I do love that teacup!

  11. I love this cup and saucer. I love the shape and the design on the cup.

    These cabinets are messing up my blogging this week but I can't wait to join the tea gang next week.

  15. Does your hubby read your posts? Mine does, and I must say he too is becoming more agreeable to me looking for teacups. But, don't ask him to drink from one!
    I worry that no one will want my treasured collection when I'm gone. :-(

  17. Yes Sandi, it is the perfect shade of pink and looks lovely with your chintz!
    I am a lover of old books too -especially christian ones - so I'd need to use both sides of my brain to go shopping with you, lol!

  21. Hi Sandi, your cup really is the perfect shade of pink. I love it with your Rose Chintz! My hubby does not share my passion for vintage items. But he too let's me indulge and will go with me when vacationing. At home he let's me go by myself, well actually with friends. Thanks for sharing your beautiful cup with Share Your Cup.
    Hugs,
    Jann

  24. That pink grabbed my attention on Beverly's links. It's a neat design/style - very attractive and even more so w/you chintz china - both complimenting each other quite well.

    I was wondering if we'd see some old magazines or something too! :) I'm sure that tea tastes especially good in that particular tea cup, being blessed w/your husband's choice for you! Little things. . .wonderful.

    Enjoyed my visit!

  30. I think your teacup is beautiful. My hubby said he liked it when I collected sailboats more than my teacup collection. Oh well, I love them so it's all good! Happy Pink Saturday! Have a nice weekend.

  33. I think the first quote saying to have tea & then talk of happier things is so apropos especially in light of recent events. An early morning spent in delightful conversation with friends over tea is just what we all need!
