She knows how much I love anything with roses on it....aren't these cups and saucers cute.... |
They are marked made in China on the back.... |
These will be perfect for a tea party with my Grand daughter! |
There was a whole bunch of these white dishes with the pretty gold flowers on them. 2 dinner plates, 12 dessert plates, 12 saucers, 11 cups, a small bowl, and a small pitcher. |
Way up in the top left corner of the photo is a cute little tea diffuser shaped like a tea pot that was also in the box. |
The only marking on the dishes is this 236. |
There was only one Queens Golden Jubilee tea cup.... |
but there were 4 saucers. |
Kelly has wonderful taste and I am so glad that she thinks of me when she is out shopping! We go visit Kelly and Mark a couple of times a year and I am always so excited to see what she's found for me......she is the one that has found most of my vintage wedding gowns ....and she only pays $10 or less for each one of them! Love ya Kelly! http://sparklesandastove.com/things-pretty-linky-50-features/ http://www.impartinggrace.com/2014/03/grace-at-home-no-96.html? http://www.artsyfartsymama.com/2014/03/artsy-corner-link-party.html http://www.aglimpseinsideblog.com/2014/03/catch-glimpse-party-172.html http://bloomdesignsonline.com/2014/03/link-party-66.html?

Lucky you to have such a sweet cousin that shops for you! That is just awesome and wow, she has great taste! What wonderful dishes and the ones with roses I just love, I love dishes with roses on them too! Perfect for the tea parties is so right! Love your setting, just gorgeous and oh so, sweet! I love pink, if you see my header, you'll know it!
ReplyDeleteHave a happy Sunday~
Nancy
How nice to have a wonderful cousin like that! She's a keeper! I love the dishes she gave you. What fun you will have having a tea party with the rose set. Great find on her part- xoDiana
ReplyDeleteWell, isn't that the sweetest thing for your cousin to do! The dishes are sweet too. I love the retro looking ones with the single flower on them. Your grands will have a ball sipping their tea from those cups!
ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
What a sweet cousin!
ReplyDeleteLovely dishes! They are perfect for your beautiful home
ReplyDeleteKisses
Alessandra
Penny,
ReplyDeleteLove every one of those sweet dishes!! Kelly knows you well!! That is how my dear friend Anne Marie is. We have such similar tastes......
Hugs,
Debbie
Oh dear, I'm sorry Penny. I was sure I commented on your cousin and friend..which I think we should all have someone like her in our lives. :) The dishes are all lovely. The china looks like it may have had to do with the Queen's coronation, perhaps a set made to commemorate her 50th year on the throne. I remember watching the coronation on black and white TV. when I was in high school and my mother telling me that it was a chance of a lifetime and I would probably never see another. She was right. I probably won't. I was about 15 at the time and I am now 77 years old.
ReplyDeleteThe tablecloth with the bows is so sweet. What a lot of work that must have been.
Lucky you!
ReplyDeletePenny your table is beautiful and love those dishes. Your cousin is a gem!
ReplyDeleteSuch nice china....and the tablecloth shows them up nicely. :) Thank you for sharing this. Gentle Joy
ReplyDeleteWow! What a haul your cousin made for you! You are both so lucky to be so close. Happy Tea Day!
ReplyDeleteA great group of dishes! I love the rose patterns. So pretty! That friend knows you well!
ReplyDeleteRuth
Oh wow, beautiful sets, you have a great cousin :) thanks for sharing at Creative Mondays...
ReplyDeleteWow, great auction finds and a great cousin. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a thoughtful cousin. The dishes are all pretty and will be fun to use.
ReplyDeleteHow nice to have such a great cousin/friend who is always on the look out for you! Those dishes are amazing, and that diffuser is adorable!
ReplyDeleteI saw you linking at Project Inspire{d}
Debbie :)
Gorgeous, I love them all. What a fabulous display and such wonderful treasures. Thanks tons for linking to Inspire Me. Hugs, marty
ReplyDeleteYour new dishes are lovely and I think you are very lucky. Lucky to receive such a nice gift, and even luckier to have a wonderful cousin who is always thinking of you!
ReplyDeleteBig Texas Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
So nice of your cousin. She found some great dishes. Love the pink be-ribboned table cover.
ReplyDeleteThose are so pretty! Have fun having a tea party with your grand daughter! Thanks for sharing at Share Your Stuff Tuesdays!
ReplyDeleteHi Penny: I always look forward to what you will share on Tea Cup Tuesday. Love all your new china. Blessings, Martha
ReplyDeleteHi Penny
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for linking up at Wake Up Wednesday Linky Party tonight. So great to have you party with us. I love this lovely table setting. Wow, beautiful.
Angel
Hello Penny, what a kind friend/cousin! She really did find a bargain in that box of china! Lucky you to be the recipient! Yay! I am sure you will have fun with these. I love the matching rose cups. You can set up a beautiful tea party table with those for sure.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Terri
Oh, I love this! I am such a sucker for all things dishes, antiques, and feminine! Yet I love in a houseful of boys! Love your blog!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely box of china! I especially enjoyed the gold flower tea set. The two pretty cookie trays with the serving handles in the tea set stood out from the other pieces. Hope you have a wonderful time serving tea and scones!
ReplyDeletePam
You find so many great bargains at your auctions - I'm surprised you don't have a booth in an antique mall! Your cousin brought you some wonderful dishes!!
ReplyDeleteYou have a very sweet cousin. Great finds there! -Dawn @ We Call It Junkin.com
ReplyDeleteall of these dishes are gorgeous! What a bargain!! I think I need to start looking for auctions in our area!! I have never been to one. Happy VTT
ReplyDeleteMost time you cannot find one dish for 2.00.. let alone a whole set. That was a steal of a deal.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Wow, how nice to have your own personal shopper who knows your tastes! The Queen's dishes are pretty neat!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great weekend!
Blessings,
Sarah
How nice of your cousin! Pretty set. Happy March :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful collection. Thanks for sharing on Sweet and Savoury Sundays, stop by and share with us again this weekend!
ReplyDeleteSo nice! My cousin and I live a few states away, we are 1 month apart and very close...such a blessing isn't it!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing at AMAZE ME MONDAY...
Blessings,
Cindy
So very pretty! Thank you for sharing. You will be one of the features today at the Make it Pretty Monday party at The Dedicated House. Hope to see your prettiness again at the bash! Toodles, Kathryn @TheDedicatedHouse
ReplyDeleteMarvelous auction finds, Penny - so happy for you! I do appreciate you sharing with A Return to Loveliness,
ReplyDeleteKathy
