tea time



anytime is teatime at our place..


combining our love of tea and to celebrate the start of spring this week, i redecorated our old dresser - you might remember i found this thrown out of it's original kitchen and abandoned across the road from here.
the aqua blues, pinks and fresh white daisies have given it new life. 












have a happy day!


i hope everyone is safe on the US east coast!

this week i'm linked here

    That dresser was thrown out across the street? I think I want to live across the street if that was thrown out...imagine what they kept. Your display is beautiful.

    Your cupboard vignette is so cheerful and lovely. I like the Vintage Thermos, I recently scored one that looks similar while Thrifting & think the Graphics and colors are delightful, but I don't think mine is old.
