Hi Friends!
Hope you are all enjoying the month of April.
Today is the reveal
for
The Tea Cup and Mug Exchange.
Bloggers and friends from all over the world,
join in to exchange
and make new friends.
has been our hostess for 8 years.
She does an excellent job organizing
with
the work involved to make it special for everyone.
I received a beautiful tea cup from
Judy Frey of Pennsylvania.
She does not have a blog
but we have already become friends through email.
Here are the special gifts she blessed me with in our exchange.
When I opened the box, Judy had placed all the goodies securely
inside a pretty gift bag.
I opened the bag to find all these special treats.
Starting with one of the pretties teacups ever.
I love the butterfly design and wings on the saucer
which has a unique shape.
Irish Breakfast tea, darling tea bag holder,
note pad and sweet note.
Along with this darling keepsake porcelain box with delicate roses.
Tucked inside was healthy Dove dark chocolate.
Love this Lily of the Valley Yardley soap.
Sweet seeds to plant in my garden.
And
a darling tea towel
with pretty teacups in spring colors.
Thank you Judy for all these wonderful treasures.
I had so much fun opening my gift
and
I've been so enjoying my new tea cup in my collection.

Celestina, you're back! And you came back just in time for Stephanie's wonderful tea cup exchange. You know, I've never participated, but I do love browsing through all the pretty tea cups and gifts. And I see that you got a very nice one. The green butterfly cup is just right for spring, and the Irish Breakfast tea is so tasty and a favorite of mine. The porcelain box with roses is pretty....and chocolates!! The gift you gave your blog friend is lovely as well. I'm off to check out Stephanie's post now and see some more lovelies. You gals are so creative with your ideas for this tea cup exchange.

Hello Celestina~~Oh it is so good to see you post!! I have missed you lovely lady, but those breaks must come to us when needed.
Judy Frey...I gave a tea cup to her, and I am so enjoying her friendship through our e mails, she is precious. That tea cup is quite unique, and a beautiful color. I have never seen anything like it before.
She graced you with some other lovely gifts as well, enjoy.
Your gift package to Marilyn is beyond beautiful, Celestina. The grace and beauty of your hands warms my heart so...Her heart must have been overjoyed when she received it.
Much love to you~~
Debbie
This looks like so much fun! It's just as much fun finding all the sweet little treasures for someone as it is receiving all the goodies!
The packages that you sent and received are both wonderful! Love the green butterfly teacup and pretty tea-themed towel.
You received a unique teacup and many other lovely gifts, the bag alone is pretty and reminds me of the roses you paint.
That is a pretty teacup! You sent some lovely treasures to your teacup lady.
warmly,
