I am not sure,but do you think you can have too many teacups?
I can't help myself,when I go thrifting. I can't not buy one if it is pretty or,and a good price.
This little pile are missing their saucer,and do I care,not likely.
You never know when that allusive little saucer or plate may turn up.
I have these patterns imprinted on my brain.
Then there are the ones that come in sets,and usually have never been used.
Maybe sat in some ones china cabinet for years.
Or the little sets which come your way from a friend who knows how much you will treasure their unwanted ones
A gift from a work colleague many years ago
Then there are all the completed sets, some including plates
Then the bridal set from early married life,which is used often
More tucked away for every day use in the back of the cupboard
And lastly a basket full on the counter top for everyday use.
This is the set we use for breakfast everyday
I like to call it our breakfast set, I set the table for breakfast after dinner at night.
It's what my grandma always did,and I loved everything she did.
I am now going to have a nice cup of Tulsi tea with some home made custard tart
It's so nice to be able to have a different teacup when you feel like a change.:)
Do you have an obsession with teacups?
I am joining all my friends at the following tea parties.

I was going to say that you can never have too many teacups but my goodness..you have a lot! I would say if you love them and have room for them then enjoy! They are very pretty and I love them too. There are so many projects i have seen with teacups too. Have a good day!

Hi Jeanetteann,
I love all your beautiful teacups! You can never have too many teacups in my opinion *wink* I love to collect teacups & teapots! I would love to have tea & custard with you. Your custard looks delicious. Have a wonderful day!

No, I don't think you can ever have too many tea cups and you have quite a collection there! :) Thanks for popping in to see me.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
I say no you can NEVER have too many teacups :-) Now, finding space to put them can be another issue. You have quite the beautiful collection.
What a lovely collection. My mom was a firm believer that one could not have too many teacups. As children, and with the grands and great grands, we often had tea parties using 'real' china cups.
nice post thanks for sharing...looking for to visit more blessings
Oh Jeanetteann, I can see that I don't have nearly enough teacups. lol! You have them displayes so wonderfully. I think everyone of them is just precious.

You can NEVER have too many tea cups!

Wow! You do have quite a few don't you, lol!
All lovely and hard to resist.
The ones without saucers make great measuring cups for flour, sugar etc when baking.
Pretty and still practical :-)
It's nice to see how much you enjoy your little treasures!
blessings..Trish xx
Hi Jeanetteann,
I LOVE the teapot and cup/saucer set with the yellow and red flowers...they make me smile.
As for your question....you only have too many anythings when you have no more display or storage space left.
have a good week

You have so many pretty collections, not to mention the odd ones here and there.
I restrain myself now, it has to be something special and in a pattern I don't have, to buy it.
Judith
You have so many beautiful teacups! You can't have too many though:)
What a wonderful collection of teacups. Just Beautiful!
Jody
Hi Jeanetteann,
You have a lovely collection and the soft blues and pinks are what really caught my eye. My obsession has always been for pretty teapots but I find I'm really getting into teacups too. I will not buy one however unless I simply can't live without it. Most of my teacups are in 'sets of dishes.' I enjoyed seeing your pretties and thank you for sharing them with us.
Blessings,
Sandi
"Never,Never,Never can we have enough teacups"!!! Your collection is "GORGEOUS"! and I "KNOW" you already know that, because I can picture you smiling at them... You are "SO AMONGST FRIENDS" here that share your passion.
I am positive that the saucers to your sweet orphans are out there and will be joining you soon... We need to set up a swap shop...
Have a fun week,
Donna
Pshaw! One can never have too many teacups - yours are absolutely beautiful - It must be fun just finding places to display/store them!
I appreciate you sharing with Home and Garden Thursday,
Kathy
I can see I need to buy more teacups! Actually I've been looking for them at thrift stores and right now there is none to be had. What is everyone doing with them? Anyway, yours are all lovely and if you have room what better collection to have. Love your breakfast set and its so sweet what you said about your Grandma.
Have a good evening.
Nancy
Thanks for sharing this lovely post on Simple & Sweet Fridays.

Your teacups are lovely :)
WOW! I would say you don't have enough tea cups!!!! LOL! Hugs and blessings, Cindy
You have soooo many beautiful teacups! I hope you'll stop by my blog and enter my giveaway! You might win another one!
Cindy
Hi Jeanetteann! Love all your tea cups. Fabulous. Susan
They're all gorgeous, never too many as long as they give you pleasure! My theory anyway. Pam
Well, I love all the different teacups! they all look so pretty. I am not the person to ask if you have too many since i have about 75 teacups and saucer sets! LOL Thank you for sharing this with us at TTF. I hope you have a fantastic day!
LOL That's ALOT of teacups!
Such a pretty collection! :)
No! Never to many! :)
But then maybe I'm the wrong person to ask... ;)
You have a lovely collection!!
~Liz
Stunning! I wish I had some china. I do have a set I got for my hope chest when I was a young lady, but none else but a pretty tea cup and saucer from my mother! I also love the lace on your shelves!
Blessings,
Susie
You have a beautiful collection of teacups & I don't think you can ever have too many! Enjoy them!
You have so many pretty ones. I love the idea of having a basketful. That's one way to store them when you run out of room!
Liz
Hi Jeanetteann, just wanted to hop over and let you know that I will be featuring your teacup collection on Share Your Cup this week.
Hugs,
Jann
I truly love all of your beautiful tea sets. I don't think you can have too many tea cups. Who knows who might come over for tea! I am a new collector so I don't have many at this time, but hoping to get a few down the road. I love all the different colors and shapes and I'm really getting into the ones with BIG flowers on them. It's good to be a girl. LOL...
Thanks for sharing your wonderful treasures.
Brenda
no, never to many giggle. They are all lovely! Hugs
