I almost didn’t get this.
I came home and told my hubby about this tea set and he told me to go back and buy it! (I know, I’m lucky…he’s MINE and you can’t have him! hahaha)
This thrift store is new to me and fast becoming a favorite. It’s called Next American Picker and they buy things from all over for their store. Everything is very clean and nicely displayed. The owners are friendly, too!
Do you remember this box? I got it there awhile back and it’s one of my favorite treasures.
I had the cake plate close by and thought the tea pot looked nice on top. Of course I’ll probably change it up some. I wonder if I should put my silver spoons in the sugar dish or should I put tea bags inside?
I’m joining the Vintage Inspiration Link party HERE,

Oh my! Blessed gal! Kiss that husband of yours again and be sure to have a tea party some lovely day. You do like tea, don't you?
You sure got a great guy...I do too!
Oh my goodness, I saw a complete BW tea set with teacups and didn't buy it and now I'm still sorry I didn't!
Love yours; it's gorgeous... enjoy it.

Diane, I love your new tea set. How sweet of your husband. It looks great on your table too. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
That is a beautiful set, I do love blue and white dishes, your husband was sweet to tell you to go back and get it, I think spoons would look great with it, but I also like the looks of silver and blue together :)
Bet you're glad it's sitting on your table now - very pretty!!
Love love love the blue and white!!!! Blessings Francine.
Aw! What a treasure - the hubby and the tea set, too! Love your coasters and pretty doilies xo :) Karen
Diane,
Blue china is my very favorite, and my wedding china was even in BLUE. Your blue tea set is gorgeous, and I'm so glad you went back to get it. You can use it for many years to come.
love, ~Sheri
Oh so pretty - I do love Blue Willow - I have a few pieces - just beginning to re-collect it. The fun is in the hunt. I have oodles of Pink Willow - and love it just as much. What a treasure you found - and what a treasure your husband is too. I have to be careful what I admire or Don will buy everything I comment on. (Though I do know how to hint when I REALLY want something.
So pretty. I have a blue willow soup tureen that I've posted here before, but I prefer Flow Blue and cobalt. Nice setting!
Oh, how did you pass it up to begin with? :-) It's great that it was still there when you went back. It is a treasure as is your husband. I have a treasure of a husband too!
so sweet, the tea set and the hubby!!! i remember that box, very well, as i liked it also. you can never have too many boxes or baskets ;)
Silver spoons in the creamer and tea bags in the sugar bowl! Or the other way around! However you decide to display it, that's a great find!
So sweet of him and I love Blue Willow ☺
This is a good set to have, a classic. I can bring my own blue and white teacup for tea...
I used to have that teaset and dinnerware but when I downsized 3 years ago, I decided to get rid of all blue! Now I am thinking I may have to look for more! So pretty!
So glad you went back and got it. You would have never for given your self.
I'm so happy it was still there waiting for you when you went back. It looks so pretty on your cake plate. Thanks for sharing your treasures at Vintage Inspiration Party.
Can't go wrong with blue & white pretties! How fun to have a new treasure hunting shop!
warmly,
deb
Yep, that guy is a keeper!
What a lovely tea set. So glad you went back and got it.
Hugs,
Marie
Hello Dear Diane,
Well we definitely have something in common now as everyday I drink my tea from an almost identical teapot even the same size as yours -
We have always used a teapot and lovely china and feel blessed that we even can.
Love that delightful little church building you pass on your trip to and from Florida - what a little beautie!
I love your new blue China and what a sweet husband you have!
That's a lovely set, and a lovely man you have there :)
Diana
Simply lovely, sweet friend! And how kind of your husband :) Hugs to you, dear one!
That was a good buy! I love each piece of English Blue Willow I have found over the years and keep it all in my red and white living room.
One of the American Pickers has a nice store here in Nashville but it is pricey.
Hi Diane, Love your tea pot and I'm so glad you went back to get it. It is beautiful and I have the same one given to me from my son one birthday. How nice it looks on your table. Yes, you've got a keeper in your hubby.
Thanks for stopping by my creative space and your kind comment.
Hugs, cm
Oh, my, so you're the lucky owner of a great teaset and of the most perfect husband? Not fair!
Lovely tea set Diane! Wonderful hubby too! LOL!

Linda

Aw, precious memories! (The Blue Willow) ... And the store looks fun.
Wish I had your sewing ability! I also was checking out all of your posts. Love your table, love Shalom Park and the old buildings too.
You have been busy!
Deb
What wonderful finds Diane, that stores a keeper!
What a precious tea set. I love that shade of blue.
Oooh, I love Blue Willow. That hubby of yours is a keeper for sure! You lucky gal!
This is lovely. There is something so classy about a blue and white combo.
