Hi Snap, your tea cup with Holly berries ist so perfect for the season. And what a fun, it matches great to the book, too. That sound so nice: a story about the joy having a tea together. Such a lovely post. Best greetings, Johanna
Great nursery to shop in. I bought this book for a gift - no teacup came with it though and plan to give it to one of the grands for Christmas this year. Happy Tea Tuesday. Judith
Hello Snap, You found the most delightful little Christmas cup! What a beauty it is! Christmastime is such a fun time to browse the shops, isn't it? Thanks so much for joining me for my Christmas Tea. Wishing you a delightful week and a very Happy Christmas season.
Snap, thank you so much for stopping by for tea. You are sharing some fun things for tea! That is a great handle on the teacup and I love the festive red and green holly. That book sounds wonderful... I hope I will be an aunt that our nieces and nephews will visit for tea!! xo HHL

I love, love, love your Christmas tea cup! I have a copy of the book. I don't have children, but I'm an Aunt many times over! It's one of my favorites! Hugs, Cindy
We are blessed, here in Victoria, with many tea shops, and Christmas is a perfect time for trying new teas. This evening I had green tea flavoured with clove - mmmmmm
What a lovely shopping trip you shared! I shall have to look for that book and a pretty cup. They would make a lovely gift for a special friend of mine.
I love this pretty teacup. I love tea...all kinds...especially Chai and I just found a recipe in my Christmas Gooseberry Patch Cookbook to make a tea mix. I am going to make it today. xoxo bj

I've been out shopping again!My latest adventure took me to Cornelius Nursery.I wanted a poinsettia and a Christmas cactusand while I was there I enjoyed all the decorations ...especially this table filled with sugarplums of all kinds and a tea canister!

I love the handle on this tea cup
and the wonderful red and green of the holly and the ivy pattern. There is no decoration on the interior of the cup.The bottom of the cup and saucer read:Bella LuxGracie Bone Chinaby Coastline Imports.

This tea cup reminded me of the book:A Cup of Christmas Tea by Tom Hegg and illustrated by Warren Hanson.It is the story of a young man's reluctant visit to an elderly aunt at Christmastime and the unexpected joy it brings.

One year the book came as a set with a teacup.I remember gifting the set to a friend who often talked about her Auntand the joy they shared over a cup of tea.
Thanks to our tea party hostesses.These are just a few of the tea parties in the Land of Blog.Teapot and Tea Things TuesdayTea Time TuesdayTeacup TuesdayTea Party TuesdayTuesday Tea For Two
Wishing YOU well and a wonderful cup of tea!
