Vintage teacups and fond memories

When I grew up I remember visiting both my grandmothers and drinking out of thee most beautiful fine china teacups and in the last year my fondness for vintage tea cups got ignited again after a friends birthday party as well as having afternoon tea at the Grosvenor House.  I really want to start a little collection of my own so need to go visit those charities shops, which for now will have to wait while I save some money.  But for now I will just keep pinning these cups!

Beautiful Vintage Teacups....

Things British

I recently found out about Things British through the wonderful team of Britsh Sellers on Etsy.  The process was easy and the people that own the store was very helpful.  Darrell and his team where patient with all my questions and I know my products are in good hands.

Labels were designed by The Design Boat which has added a new diminution to Knitaboo and how I present my product.  The Avatar that was designed is great and I am hoping to get it printed on material so that I can stitch that on.

Things British is a great concept and I know that it is a company that will go from strength to strength.  I think in the current climate that people with realise that supporting that which is at our door step is the way forward.  Mass produced items do make things cheaper but we need to reduce our consumption of natural resources and reduce our waste.  I know sometimes I am guilty of that too but I as my daughter is growing up there are things that I need for her to learn and understand.
