Hi ladies!

There has been some interest in doing a Tea Cup exchange. I love this idea because I am addicted to tea cups!

So here we go! It can be one you have in your collection, you can go to thrift shops and find one or even buy one brand new! It's up to you. The rules are open! Sign up below, and I will start a list. Find your name on the list and then email the person who is above your name with your name and address. So you will be sending a tea cup to the person who's name is below yours and receiving one from the person who's name is above!

Sign ups close August 15th. Due date is September 15th.
Please use some sort of tracking for your package.

Alee, My teacup arrived today, sad to say the saucer was broken, Thank you for the tin of goodies, the teacup was not damaged. I guess those crazy FedEx handlers were rough. Thank you again.

It's in the mail! Nora and I have been down and out with a Sinus infection and then School has me swamped under. Doug was supposed to drop some packages off at Fed-Ex a few weeks ago and I found them when I cleaned the car out when company came last weekend. Got to Fed-Ex today and it's on it's way with some extra goodies thrown in for your patience!

Kelly, I would e-mail Alee because you would have gotten one from her and she said she was mailing hers out a few weeks ago!

I got mine! Yarnmamma sent it to me and she sent me a knitted hotpad it's beautiful. And sent my favorite tea- peach. Thank you. I am sorry I did not get back sooner, I got it last week but have been covered up with all that is going around here. We are moving animals around here on the farm.

Dear Kristine,
I just received the package from you! The cup and saucer are lovely, and I am enjoying the fragrance from the lavendar/mint tea! As soon as I opened the box, the aroma was just too good! I know we'll enjoy using the Momma's Salve as well. Thank you for making my day. This has been such a fun exchange...looking forward to the next one!

Hi all,
I got the prettiest cup and saucer from Monica! AND she sent me a jar of preserves along with it. I'm planning to have those with breakfast tomorrow morning. My digital is messed up right now but I will try and see if I can get a picture to post.
Thanks again, Monica!

I got my teacup from joyfulmama! And it matches my Willow Blue China! I was so excited! The teacup is a different shape though like an octagon and I just love it! And she sent me some other goodies with it... tea, a pretty hand-painted box with flowers, and darling notecards of litle girls having a tea party! Thank you so much, Debra! I can tell you put so much thought and care into it.

This tea cup exchange has been so much fun, I can't wait for the next one.

Denise,
Please forgive me! I am off schedule and perpetually running behind! I lost track of the date and my son has been home sick for 2 days! I am going to the post office today to mail your package! If I make it there before 11:00am It will go out today! I will let you know so you know when to expect it! I have your address! Once again I apologize and I really hope you like what I am sending!

Well the dead line to ship was yesterday. If you haven't heard from your swap partner, you should click on their forum name to make sure they have the right shipping address.

Thanks Linda,
I am so glad you like your teacup!

Rene,
That is a beautiful poem. When I first saw the title it reminded me of my dad and how he drinks his coffee from the saucer instead of the cup. The first fews drinks anyway to cool it off.

Rene, I love that poem. I'm going to write it down and frame it. Doesn't it just say it all. Thanks for sharing it.

Linda I think that is a wonderful idea about goinig to individual mugs and teacups. Much, much better that styrofoam or paper.

Denise {Levisgrammy} --- the tea cup and saucer exchange you sent is perfect. Everyone at work come over to admire you creative handiwork and express how much better their tea would be from a lovely, vintage cup rather then starfoam cup. Maybe we have started a trend to going back to individual mugs and teacups.
