TEA CUPS, NEW COLLECTIONS AND A GROW YOUR BLOG PARTY!


Hello Ladies and welcome to Tea Cup Tuesday No. 256!  Hope you have had a wonderful week.  I am also joining the "Grow Your Blog 2015" this week.  Hoping to add some ladies to our Tea Party and make new friends.  I always love to look at other ladies tea cups and  of course their homes.


I am going to be sharing black and white tea cups this week, but before I do, I must share my new Royal Doulton collection.   I had never owned any because the price was just too high for my taste.  This week I hit the Jacket Pot! I picked these up for $14 dollars, unbelievable, I know! Each one more beautiful that the last.  As you know I have always loved the lady figurines.  It felt like Christmas!







Ok, on to the tea cups.  My first cup is this Royal Stafford, black beauty.  Very simple and oh so elegant!  Just a tiny red rose to decorate the cup. 




My next cup is this amazing Foley from England.  The pattern name is "Florence."  Stunning isn't it?





I have been trying to do my first link alone, so far no luck.  I will keep trying. I don't want to not post, until I have success, please just leave a comment so I can visit. (I miss Terri!)  I have a couple of fun pictures of the grandchildren.  Noah has been very sick all month.  Please pray for him.  Like his Grandma, he just can't get over this cold. 



Have a wonderful day.  Looking forwarding to visiting everyone this week. Hugs, Martha

Hi Martha,
You have some beautiful figurines. I love the Foley teacup with all the roses. We are in the middle of a blizzard right now and so far so good, we still have our power. Hope your little guy feels better soon.

Blessings,
Sandi

Hi Martha
I was already thinking you wouldn´t post this week and I would miss Tea Cup Tuesday. After all, here you are with all your beauties!
My favourite tea cup is your Royal Stafford "black beauty" :) Very exquisite indeed!
Thanks for hosting.
Have a great week enjoying the company of your sweet grandchildren!
Hugs

Hi Martha,
What luck with the figurines!! I have one that my Mom gave me, which she used to collect. Your teacups are stunning, as always. I hope you get over your cold.

Technology can be a pain!!! I love the dramatic black and white too! Lovely choices! Glad you found some Royal Doulton. Have a lovely week!

Karen said...

Hi Martha,
What amazing Royal Doulton finds! I love the last two. They are usually so pricey. Your black and white teacups are making me swoon. Simply Gorgeous! I miss Terri too! Hope your grandson gets well soon. My son is over his pneumonia but now my daughter has the stomach flu. I can't wait for spring! Happy Tea Day Sweet Friend! Karen

KathyB. said...

As usual your teacups are beautiful, but the grandkids are the treasure here. I hope you're both on the mend now...being sick for more than a few days is no fun.

I already miss Terri too, and am thankful you're willing to keep up the teacup posts.

What beautiful teacups, figurines and children, Martha! Thanks for sharing them...Christine

Margie said...

I always enjoy seeing your beautiful black teacups!

Carrie said...

Hi Martha! Great find with those lovely ladies. $14 is a steal! Both of those teacups are simply lovely! I can see why they are your favorites. I hope Noah is doing better soon!

Jocelyn said...

Beautiful teacups! So sorry about the trouble with the linky. I hope you can figure it out. I hope that Noah will be better soon. So much illness this winter.

Cheryl said...

I hope you are both feeling much better now! I know what you mean...these colds just hang on for what seems like forever. I SO enjoyed seeing your beautiful pictures! Have a wonderful, blessed day!

Stella Jones said...

Your collections are gorgeous Martha. I have always wanted to collect the crinoline ladies but there have always been too many children around for me to take the first step. Nowadays the Royal Doulton figurines have dropped in value, presumably because they are a bit out of fashion but that will change, I'm sure.
I love your tea cups, so very pretty. Greetings from England.

Alessandra said...

Wonderful collection. The Florence tea cup is just gorgeous

Hello, You do have some very lovely teacups! I enjoyed seeing them in this post! And your wee little ones look like characters from a great imagination!
Blessings, Roxy

Denise said...

Lovely Foley Teacup!

Miss Kathy said...

Oh my, Martha! What a bargain giving those lovely ladies a new home for so little! I have a post coming up with a host of RD Ladies that I own on film only. Found them displayed at an antique show and didn't have the extra $600 hanging around to bring them home. They are stunning! I own only one--with my name spelled the way I spell it. Your teacups are lovely but for me, the ladies steal the show this week!

I'm sorry you can't get the linky to work. What is the problem? Perhaps someone can give you a step by step tutorial. That's how I learned to do my All Things Bright and Beautiful monthly linky (this week, in fact) but, honestly, I'm not sure if I remember ALL the ins and outs of establishing the account. But, it's pretty easy once you have the account.

Bless you--why not link in with me this week. You always have bright and beautiful things to share. http://www.thewritersreverie.com/2015/01/all-things-bright-beautiful-link-up-8.html

Joy!
Kathy

Hello Dear Martha...Lovely figurines. I think they are just so beautiful. Your cups are very nice, too. Oh Martha, I can imagine how much you miss Terri. God bless that woman.

Still praying for your boy. Hope things are better. Susan

Sue Kosec said...

You throw a great party. Thank you for inviting me!

So that you know, I've become a Follower and when time permits, I'll be back to see what other beautiful things were made by your hands!

What this party is all about is to GROW your blog and I'm hoping to do the same. When you get to Section One, check out A Country Chic Retreat and SuZeQ Creations, my personal blog, in Section Fifteen I'd love for you to follow and subscribe to.

Happy crafting!
SuZeQ

Deborah Montgomery said...

Lovely figurines and cups; you have so many beautiful things to share. Praying you and your grandson feel better soon.

Beth in NEPA said...

Beautiful figurines! And black tea cups are special aren't they. I have only had a couple over the years but I do like them alot!

Karen said...

What fun to be able to purchase your RD figurines so inexpensively! I love the set with the mother and her demure little girl. Precious! The Foley tea cup is stunning! I adore the roses on the bottom of the inside of the cup.

Carole @ From My Carolina Home said...

Amazing teacups, love the black one with the single rose! Visiting from GYB

Miss Merry said...

Such a good buy on the Royal Doulton! Your tea cups are just beautiful, too!

Magpie's Mumblings said...

I enjoyed scrolling down and seeing some of the beautiful tea cups you've shown. Thank you for being on the tour and for having us in for a visit.

Beth said...

Hi Martha, Your Royal Doulton figures are just lovely! I also love your teacups - you always have the prettiest teacups! And so many of them! I think you are a teacup-aholic! lol
I love them too and my grandmother was a collector. I have several from her collection.
Blessings and hugs, Beth

Sheryl said...

Delighted to discover your blog and see all these beautiful tea cups and figures.
