I welcome you! I am joining Teacup Thursday with Miss Spenser and Vintage Thingie Thursday with Coloradolady.
With Valentine's coming soon I can't help but think of red and this Aynsley, England 1940s teacup with pretty gold overlay pattern came to mind. Aynsley always has such pretty and elegant designs!
And this romance postcard postmarked 1908 has the proper romantic note. The young man with the fishing girl is chatting up the chic. The title is

We bring out a new line...
The postcard was sent and received at Clifton, New York. The Edwardian humorous romance postcard at it's best!
I am planning to make decorated sugar cookies tomorrow. Yesterday, dealing with milk allergies, I made a Victorian recipe my grandmother brought with her when she emigrated to the US from England. The cookies are called Fairings, have no milk and are basically a spice cookie. Came out well. Now I have a dairy free sugar cookie to make.
Have a great day visiting all the fun blogs!
What a lovely set and yes, it reminds me of Valentine's Day! Your cookies will be a beautiful treat. Enjoy your day.
ReplyDeleteHi Ruth,
ReplyDeleteI just adore your red Aynsley teacup! It is perfect for Valentine's Day. I couldn't help but notice your beautiful postcard from Clifton Park - only 20 minutes away from where I live.
Your beautiful red and gold tea cup is perfect for Valentines Day coming soon. The postcard is very appropriate for today's vintage fun.

That teacup and saucer are completely gorgeous! I'm a fan of vintage paper and would normally be all over raving about the postcard, which IS very cool, but that teacup just blows me away!

Your cup and saucer are like a porcelain valentine!
ReplyDeleteI love your cup and saucer Ruth. I have been on the hunt for a few this color. I have fun a couple...maybe next Teacup Thursday?
