Friendship Tea Vignette

This pretty little tea picture was a Goodwill find for $4.00!
(sorry for the glare)

This pretty young lady with her basket of flowers was a gift to me from my
 sweet sister in law.
Thank You Crystal!! She looks "Plum Perfect" with my tea setting today!

This tea pot is from the Goodwill and was $4.75.
 My favorite part about this find is that she sings! Yes, I have found a musical teapot!!
(I should have taken pictures of the bottom of her to show you)

This embroidered tea towel is one of my favorites.
It is a Thrift Store find that was only $1.49!

My Mothers church hosted a Mothers Day Banquet this year and their theme was Tea!
I was so happy to be able to attend with my Mother and my Sister.
All of the ladies in attendance went home with a tea set and I came home with this pretty little tea cup and saucer.
~LOVE~

We also received the Friendship Tea along with the recipe wrapped up in these lovely cream lace sachets.

I would be delighted to have you stop by and enjoy some friendship tea with me!
I will soon be sharing some of the recipes and pages from this big ole' cookbook
 in an upcoming post. You won't want to miss it!!

Thank You for stopping by, Tea is always better when shared with a friend!

Debbie Mumm Inspired Tablescape & A GIVEAWAY!!

My tablecloth and napkins are a recent win from a giveaway hosted by Pam at Virginia Retro! They are just so lovely and I was surprised and thrilled to find out that I was the lucky winner.
 You can go here-----> Virginia Retro to read about it.
 Pam would love to have you as a follower, she always has so many beautiful vintage linens to share. You will be so delighted with her blog, THANK YOU PAM!! 

I have had these yellow plates by Better Homes & Gardens for a few years now.
They were $1.00 each at the Goodwill.

My flatware was also purchased at Goodwill and they were .25 each. I was able to purchase a service for 4 and 2 large serving pieces.

My clear cake plate was a yard sale find for .25!!
 The glass tea light holder is from the Dollar Tree.
The little Debbie Mumm Teapot was $2.00 at a Church Rummage Sale
and it came new in the box.

My napkin rings were also purchased at Goodwill.
 I believe that they were $2.00 for the set of 4.  

I just loved this beautiful crocheted rose doily, also from the Goodwill for $2.00. 

The newest addition to my dish obsession  collection is this set of four Debbie Mumm  plates.
I found these at a newly discovered consignment shop and they were
 $8.00 for the set of four.
I love the bold colors and the different design that each plate has.

Coffee or Tea? Tablescape

This setting all started with the toile table topper. I found this beautiful fabric at a yard sale still wrapped around the bolt, there was no price on it so when I asked the lady how much she wanted for it she said $2.00, and I said SOLD!!

I pulled out my creamy lace napkins and decided I wanted to use the pretty little gold teapot napkin rings and incorporate my gold flatware and chargers to add some richness.  

These pretty little pastry candles were purchased at the Dollar Tree.

I absolutely LOVE these pretty tea sets that I found at the Goodwill. Here at our local Goodwill store any kitchen item that is not marked with a price tag is .50----yep! you know where I am going with that statement, these beauties were not marked so I got them all for $4.00!!! I had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn't just dreaming!

My beautiful tea sets!

Rhapsody in Blue Tablescape

~~Rhapsody in Blue Tablescape~~

I borrowed my mom's pretty blue chargers

This tablescape has been a work in progress for over a month now. I found these beautiful  dishes at the Goodwill. They are Sheffield Rhapsody #503. As soon as I laid eyes on them I knew they just had to come home with me. I bought the service for four including the butter dish for $10.00!! I was thrilled with the price.

The pretty embroidered napkins came from a Thrift Store just last week and they were $2.93 for a set of four.
The knife spreaders also came from a Thrift Store and were $7.99, a little more than I like to pay but they were so pretty and new in the box so....somehow they found their way into my cart. 

I NEVER...... EVER.......  win anything, I mean my name could be the only one in a box along with a blank piece of paper and believe me the blank paper would be drawn lol.... BUT---I have won not 1, not 2, not 3 but 4 giveaways here in blogland  since the end of February.
The little paper pocket that is holding my tea packets were in a  scrapbook giveaway that Shannon at A Southern Belle with Northern Roots hosted. You can go HERE to see all the lovely things that she sent me! 

These beautiful napkin rings were a gift from Meri at ImagiMeri's. She was my partner in a Easter Swap Party that Sue from It's a Very Cherry World hosted. You can go HERE to see all the wonderful items that Meri sent to me. 

My tablecloth is a full size flat sheet that I picked up at Goodwill for $2.00. Gotta love those Goodwill deals!

Please stop by and visit with Shannon, Meri and Sue, I know you will enjoy their blogs.

I will soon be sharing more about the giveaways that I have won so stop back in.
Thank You for coming by today!

A Spring Tea Vignette

I'm back after being MIA for the last two weeks. I seem to have a lot going on this Spring and Summer  and the fun has already begun. Vacation, Graduation, Birth of my niece, Family Reunion's and that is just to name a few! I'm looking forward to all the upcoming events.


This morning I came across a Tea Set that I purchased at a Goodwill while visiting my Aunt and decided it was time for a vignette.

Pansies and Butterfly's...... 

Another Goodwill find for $2.00

A sip of Green Tea to start the day....
I have to admit, I really don't like Green Tea but I am trying very hard to acquire the taste for it.  

I love the look of the brown basket weave on the handles and bottoms of the cups as well as on the Teapot itself.

 Take time in the morning before the business of the day starts to think about all the blessings that you have and then write them down and remember to be thankful for all that the Lord has done.   

Tea towel was $1.10 at a Thrift Store. Please forgive the wrinkles, I didn't have time to iron this morning .

This Tea Set is for SALE!! If you are interested just send me an e-mail at onesmallblessing@yahoo.com for further information.
Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a blessed week!
