I had about 15 minutes on Fri. in a new (to me) thrift store in Blair. This and a few pieces of silverware is all I walked away with. However, I am always excited to add a new tea cup to my growing collection.
She's pretty isn't she?
I think will start drinking from my odds and ends of cups soon. Besides making teacup bird feeders, I thought I'd show you what else I've done with my tea/coffee cups in my sewing room.
Behind the pictures, is an old crate that I've filled with cups to hold "what not"--supplies, this and that....
This is an old desk drawer that had dividers in it. Tipped on it's back side, it makes a perfect shelf to hold my odds and ends cups that I think are just so pretty.
It makes collecting "what-not" even that much more fun.
My little organizers make it easier to find those little pieces for a project. I have to admit though that it's hard to part with any of the little pieces as I like them so much in their little cup homes.

Clever storage. I think you SHOULD pour yourself some chamomile tea in one of your tea cups. It will help to steady your hand while do your free arm embroidery!
ReplyDeleteI also love your thread storage that we got a glimps of.
