Old World Tea

Come join me today for an Old World Tea.

The tea is Russian and was brought over from one of our trips.





I brought the hand made lace in Belgium when we traveled there four years ago.


 The silverware was a gift from my hubbys' aunt who had purchased it around the time of the second World War.


The creamer was painted by my late mother in love.  She was a talented and gifted china painter.
