These two little teacups are such cute reminders of the love of friends. At least, that’s what I see when I look at them. If you know me, you know that my tastes tend to romanticize the old-fashioned. I could sit and talk about Anne of Green Gables, Pride and Prejudice, train rides, soda-fountain shops, photographing with a film camera, and traveling with a vintage suitcase all afternoon! So it’s not odd that when I look at this set of tea cups, the immediate image in my head is two friends sitting on the front porch in their rocking chairs, enjoying a cup of tea, and chatting away the afternoon. Pretty much, with Marilla Cuthburt and Anne Shirley in mind (for all of the Anne of Green Gables fans). It was such a pleasant surprise to come across these when going through some of my great-grandmas stuff that she didn’t want anymore. Photographing a set like these has been on my want list for some time now; it was so much fun to take these and have a little photo shoot with them a couple weeks ago. Now all that’s left to do is sit on the front porch and have some tea… or coffee. 🙂
