You may be wondering what is so special about these saucers, tea cups, teapots and so on... well I will tell you. They are ever so tiny. I love little things because they are always so cute. Cute is really all they are... truly, they are not useful unless you live in a doll house. But if we are honest how many things in our lives do we like just because of the way they look? I like little things for purely superficial reasons.
I grew up collecting these little tea sets. I probably had around 25 or 30. I realize this is not a competitive number as far as collections go, but never the less a collection I proudly displayed around my room until my teenage years. At age fifteen they were taken off the shelves and put into boxes...they obviously just didn't go with my "Romeo and Juliet" Leonardo DiCaprio poster.
In recent months I have been trying to find my little tea set collection in my parents house...no luck so far, but as soon as I find them you will have the pleasure of looking at pics of my very own miniature tea sets. I know most of you (all 3 of you) are on the edge of your seat now. I appreciate that.
I'm looking forward to seeing the teasets, Mo! Love you!
ReplyDeleteYour Aunt Susan likes little things- Maybe you got it from her!
ReplyDeleteMe, I have always liked tea sets of any size-
But the minature ones are definitely sweet!
