TeaCup Trade !


in this bleak midwinter,
i spent some time reflecting
in order to find something
that might be cheery
to more than just a few of us ~
something to divert our attention from winter's longevity!
something FuN as we begin 2011...
one, hopefully brilliant thought, shone brightest ~
how about a teacup trade?
especially perfect for this National Hot Tea Month, right?
something that makes us smile :)
interested?
i'll look forward to hearing
from you in the comments
and if you're a 'yes', email me,
and i'll respond with a questionnaire
to introduce you to your trade partner
and to note your preferences~ eg.
if you're open to exchange internationally
or wish your exchange to be from
your home country, etc...
open to all teacup lovers, whether or not you blog!
any chance we would have our
teacups mailed out in time
for a Valentine arrival?
if i hear from enough participants
within the next 2-3 weeks
i think we might just make it !
are you ready to
trade teacups?...
why not add a teacup picture to your sidebar
linking to this blog post? ~
add your own creative caption to let others know of the
TeaCup Trade 
and we'll have a spot of FUN together!
Tea CHEERS!







featured at Bev's Pink Saturday Jan. 8th
THANK YOU , Bev !
and each of you for your enthusiasm
in participating!
 
more tea time treasures ~

    Hello,
    that sound like a nice idea but I think it is hard to send tea cups around the world. I really love those pretty tea cups on your pictures. Wish you a lot of fun with that trade.
    Greetings, Johanna
