Welcome to “Show and Tell Friday!” Do you have something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, or a treasured collection. Look around your home for something to share; dig through those boxes in your closet if you have to! Share photos and the story that goes with your special item.
I was dropping off a few packages at the post office this week, and somehow found myself at a favorite gift shop near our historic downtown, afterwards. ;0)
I picked out a few sticker sheets and was checking out when I noticed some beautiful transferware tea cups.
I thought they were perfect for Thanksgiving and brought two of them home with me.
So many pretty details!
We've been enjoying lots of gingerbread spice tea. Thank you for looking at my show and tell!

I saw some like that the other day. I totally fell in love with them and wished I could've bought them :(
Hey Kelli,
I keep forgetting the 'permalink'. I usually don't publish something new for 24 or so. Sorry about that.

I also live in Texas and when you said post off ice and then pottery store in historic part of town, I wonder if we live close! We're in a town that has two names and both start with an R. I was actually thinking of having my kiddos do some ceramics there for X-mas gifts. It looks like a cute little store. Those teacups are super adorable.
Those are beautiful, love the brown!

I LOVE those teacups! Wouldn't it be fun to have a set of those dishes for the fall/ Thanksgiving?! But of course I'd have no room for them - so I'd settle for the little teacups.
Very pretty, Kelli. I know you will enjoy using them.
Have a blessed week-end. Love, Debbi

Kelli, your dishes are lovely. I love the vintage dishes that have so much detail. They are very fall looking right now. However, we have snow here today and fall is gone for the winter. Still, Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Gave a great one.
Hugs...Jeanne

I just really enjoy coming to your blog. You are so creative and artistic. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Kelli. I love all the detail and earth tones are what I enjoy. Have a great week end.
Oh I love the brown transfer dinnerware!! My favorite colors are brown and white and red and white. Love your great find!

Kelli. Thanks for hosting Giving Thanks. The tea cups are exceptional. You have kept me busy this week with everyone's ideas. Have a blessed Thanksgiving.

Hi Kelli, I love the print on that china! So perfect for Thanksgiving. I don't blame you at all for buying those teacups and saucers.
Happy Show and Tell Friday!
Love, Ann
Those teacups are fantastic! Can you please mention the maker of the cups? Because I don't live anywhere near Texas... and I love peacocks :)
Oh Kelli, they're gorgeous and you're right, they're perfect for Thanksgiving. With all those beautiful finds,and your excellent taste, why don't you set up a shop?
Hello Kelli,
I love transferware, I collect blue and white. Your teacups are precious, I was hoping you'd tell us if they were new or old and show the stamp on the bottom. Brown is Martha Stewart's favorite transferware color.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Kathi :)
Gingerbread spice tea sounds delicious! Your new little tea cups are lovely.
Oh my! Oh my! I love transferware and have been seeing it all over blogland. I may hae to break down and get some.........or make very strong hints to Santa!!
