Remember my mix-and-match violet tea-set? I found another cup-and-saucer to go with it! That makes four... and each one different. This one's not quite as pretty as the other three, but for $3.50 I'm not complaining!
Isn't it fun to collect something just a little out-of-the-ordinary and then find a piece for your collection at a very reasonable price?Just thought I'd show you the latest addition as part of Kelli's Show & Tell Friday.

Very pretty. I am in an online tea swap and am looking for a cup and saucer. A pretty china one. Some places one 10-20 bucks for a set. 20 is the spending limit for the swap. And we are to be thrifty and creative!
I am hitting the thrift stores, etc, but no luck yet, I have not given up though. :-)
I love teacups! That is what I collect. Your mix-and-match set is wonderful!
I love teacups and love your set!! It's beautiful! I collect teacups and tea pots too. Loved seeing yours!
Lovely! I love the colors and the matching mis-match. I have mis-matched pink depression era dessert plates and got them at very reasonable prices too. Great find!
It's nice to have teacups and saucers that coordinate well together but do not match. They are also great conservation pieces.
I love all kinds of teacups. I think it is very pretty that all of them are different.
Yea! Now you have enough cups for when I come for tea. Would be fun to do that today! Why does it have to be soooooooo far?
niiiiiiiice! so pretty!
I've started collecting teapots...guess i should collect cups too.
they're just the ultimate "welcome to my home" thing, aren't they??!!
one day i'm gonna take a road ramble to Idaho...my nephew has been there and he tells me how beautiful it is.
have a great weekend.
come visit me, any time!!
I think you are on to something there. I like your set better because they are not all exactly alike. Take care.
I love the idea you are building this set, and they are all a little different. Very neat.

I love your collection! I love tea and the experience of afternoon tea! It's the best way to slow down and enjoy company with family and friends! Love your post today!
I love your tea set, my daughter would love it because of the purples. I love to find it for her. Its lovely!!
That's wonderful! Praise the Lord! I know that great feeling when you find something you really need or want at a good price. :-)
I love your violet tea cups. I have always loved violets anyway and your collection is so sweet!

How beautiful! I love teacups! I'll have to take pictures of the set I inherited from my great aunt. Thanks so much for sharing!
Such a lovely and delicate teaset, Karla. I love violets!
