WHIMSY AT THE VALENTINE TEA TABLE

I hope you have been invited to someone's home for a Valentine Tea - if not - why not go out for tea and support your local tea room or invite some friends over and have a tea yourself!  Your friends will love you!



This morning I took a few moments and set my dining room table for tea:


Several years ago I sold the bone china tea set with the hearts - but sadly they are discontinued and no longer made.....  it was called "Lucy's Love".  A friend said she
found some at a Home Goods Store a
few years ago.

The little heart plates are also no longer produced.  If you see one sometime in an antique mall - grab it! They were made by THT which stood for Tender Heart Treasures which was a popular company importing from China back in the early 21st century.


Gather round the table here..............

  3. Hi Bernideen,
    Your tea settings are always with outstanding china. So the heart design on ea pot and tea cup is just perfect for Velentine's day. But the heart shaped plates are too cute. You have so many nice things for tea. Thank you for giving us always new inspirations.
    Best greetings, Johanna

  9. What a darling table setting for a Valentines Tea. Love your heart dishes. I have very few valentine pieces, maybe I should start collecting! Just noticed your lovely corner curio cabinet. I had one just like it but gave it away. Wish I still had it now!

  10. Hello Bernideen
    Everything looks so pretty for your Valentine's tea. I'm hoping my DH will take me out for tea to celebrate.
    I wasn't able to post for tea this week as we were enroute for our vacation.
