I love to use bone china cups and saucers and have some exquisite tiny sets so my little grand daughters can have dollies tea parties. It's Heaven to do it with them, with items of tiny food, but at the moment they don't appreciate a good "brew" of tea!<br />Jo JoZart Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15197690337080094062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5703345404636516654.post-11573190345599438792013-11-26T07:28:13.558-08:002013-11-26T07:28:13.558-08:00So special.
