Tea Stands for Tuesday7/19/22

 Hello friends.  I was unable to participate in the napkin exchange and I think I missed an ATC exhange as well.  I can't depend on meeting deadlines or getting out to mail something these days.  I do enjoy seeing all the things that are being traded though.



I'm drinking a berry tea (forgot which one) this morning.  I found some glass mugs on a very high shelf in the kitchen,  I bought them about 30 years ago and they are marked Made in France.  I think tea looks pretty in them so they are now in my regular mug rotation.

Then there are those playing card.  I decided to turn them into ATC's.  Some call them Altered Playing Cards.  Either way, I had fun making them.






As always, I look forward to what is posted on Elizabeth's blog and what the Tea Party participants post.  See you over there.

  3. French every-day glassware for a long time has been both very functional and nice to look at. Also not too expensive. Your mugs seem to be from that sort of thing. Our local store where we used to buy it says they can't get it any more because of the supply chain issues. Sad.

  7. Your cards are very beautiful - I like that the original card peeks through on some of them. Beautiful mug as well.
