So glad you have a mighty fine teacup and saucer! The hand painting makes it a treasure. Your pretty black teacup with the heart in the header is lovely for Valentine's Day, too! Have a great 14th!
Your tulips are such a wonderful sign of spring and that teacup is a real gem! So unique in shape. Your granny would be right "It looks mighty fine." Happy Valentine's Day!
Wonderful find at the thrift store! A beautiful teacup! Your tulips go so well with the teacup! I need to buy some for me! Happy Valentine's day! Nancy
You found a nice colour of tulips for a bouquet on your table and the teacup is quite ornate - what a fancy handle! I hope you have a 'special to you' day later this week Snap. Judith
Your teacup is just so dainty and pretty and I love it's pedestal base. Such a perfect teacup for Valentine's Day! Thank you for visiting me and have a Very Happy Valentine's Day! Karen
Pretty photos! Love TJ's for food and flowers. Happy Valentine's Day :)

I went by Trader Joe's early Sunday morning.
I knew I could depend on Joe for fresh flowers -- especially tulips.
I am a happy camper!

This little teacup looks mighty fine (as my Granny would have said).
She's a sweet little gem for a Valentine Tea.

I found it at the thrift shop on my last visit -- many months ago.

It is the only hand-painted teacup that I have.
Lovely, isn't she?!
She has some wear, but that means she's been loved.

There is no artist signature.
In very small letters on the teacup it says:
April
Sweet Pea
I'm joining some tea parties today:
Tea Time Tuesday
Teacup Tuesday
Friends Sharing Tea
Tuesday Cuppa Tea
Wishing you well, much joy and a lovely cup of tea!

I should be ashamed to admit that I just made my tea with a bag in a big Tim Hortons mug. Your cup is lovely and I do love tulips.
