Melissa’s Cozy Teacup

Here is my contribution to the Make Mine Pink virtual tea.

First of all, here I am dressed in some fancy tea attire.

The cup and saucer and the dinner plate were my Grandmother Pauli-Hagemeier’s. She out lived both of her husbands and died a year and a half ago at the age of 93.

The teacup flower arrangement was made by my mother and given to me this year, with three others, for my fortieth birthday. The pink ceramic doll is supposed to be glued to the base of a lamp, and it was at one time. Together the doll, and lamp illuminated, and decorated my very pink bedroom when I was a child.

Here is another view of the doll. Isn’t my mother talented?

And on an entirely separate note, here is a picture of some blue and peach Hydrangeas I painted on a wooden magazine rack.
