Teacup Collecting?


I will tell you, "No, I don't collect teacups".
I only have this one Christmas teacup.
It is so fun to bring it out for the holidays.
I do believe it is beginning to look like Christmas.
But for sure I don't collect teacups or teapots.
Do you?
Laughing!
This is my kitchen cupboard.

My momma always told me that if you have at least three of something... it's a collection. :-)

LOL about the teacups! I do like your Christmas one.

I had to laugh, Marilyn. I don't collect teacups either, but somehow I have ended up with five. It's a tiny collect for sure but since it adds up to more than two, I guess you could call it "A COLLECTION". LOL

I believe you, my friend! You don't collect teacups and teapots - they collect you! Having been in your home I would have to say they certainly do feel right at home with you so don't be surprised if more show up! (By the way, I don't collect them, either, but I've been amazed to see how many like to gather round me from time-to-time.)

I don't collect things either--they just find me all on their own!! Very cute...I think I even have the same little sparkling ornament! ♥♫

I said I would never collect teapots after having seen someones kitchen that had over 100... I only have about 10. That doesn't count as a collection, does it?! HOWEVER, I LOVE teacups. They are smaller and more useful. I found a new one today at Goodwill - a Bridgewater! 99 cents. YES, 99 cents! This is the second one I have found and I look everytime I go. This one says "I LOVE YOU MORE THAN ELVIS" and I never had a liking for Elvis, but the I love you really got to me.

I agree, you do not have a teacup collection. You have a teacup addiction. Come one, fess up -- I bet you have more hiding...

The only teacups I have (apart from china sets) are those from my mom. They come out periodically. But teapots -- that's another thing. antique, holiday, whimsical, the main criteria is that I like them.

I notice apple dishes in your cupboard -- one of those great regrets of having a parent's estate sale when you are too young was letting my mom's apple dishes go. Especially the tea parts. I don't have autumn leaf, but do have quite a bit of Hall (tulip and crocus). I love it!

No matter how hard we try....some of us just have collection in our DNA. Pretty...pretty as always.

I believe that I have the Christmas teapot that matches your Christmas teacup. And hope, I don't collect teacups either! LOL!

Hmm, I may have one or two myself ... ;)

That Christmas teacup and saucer is gorgeous! I especially love the ribbed design -- never seen one like that before, not that I've seen that many Christmas cups and saucers at all -- and I have been looking!
