Have a cup of tea!

In the last few years, I have started to think of what I might want at my wedding. (If I do get married and don't end up an old spinster) Getting back to my initial point, one thing I have been collecting has been tea cups. I am not sure if I will use them in the reception or use them purely for decoration. I have seen them used in both capacities online. I am leaning towards just using them as decoration. I have become rather attached to the teacups and if they were broken during the party it would definitely darken my mood.

My collection of cups is not perfect. Often I am buy the random saucer or the random cup because it is more thrifty . Mismatched pairs are so much cheaper. I have found cups and saucers that come fairly close to matching and ultimately it doesn't matter to me. In the end I would like the decorations to look like an English garden party meets the Mad Hatter's table. Beautiful but a bit whimsical.

 Recently I have been shopping the local Goodwill for my teacups. You really can't beat a teacup or saucer for under a $1.00. Generally I pay $0.49 to $0.25 per tea cup or saucer depending on the sales of the day or if I happen to get to Goodwill on half price Saturday. I will share some more of my Goodwill finds in the future but for now please enjoy some of my collected cups.

~Not all of these were Goodwill finds but a lot of them were.~
