Now this is not my collection, these belong to my Little Companion, and this story probably really belongs to her but hey she's 6, so I'm just gonna borrow it for awhile.
This is Little Companion's little hutch. We found this out on one of our adventures and it was just the right size for Little Companion. She already had her china (Anniversary Rose by Royal Swan) which we had found in North Dakota. She also has a small creamer collection, she likes to pour her milk out of these in the morning, and she also has her own flatware.
But... she did not have her own full-size teapot.
One day she asked me where the teapot that went with these dishes was. Well -- says I -- that would be really hard to find, maybe impossible. BUT, I had this one that I had found while we were out thrifting recently and it actually looks pretty nice with her set. She decided that would be an acceptable alternative.

So, there you have the story of how Little Companion acquired her first teapot. It is not china, it is a Teleflora teapot, but it will due until we happen to stumble upon an Anniversary Rose Teapot by Royal Swan! Ha

Valerie! How cute is that to have that little hutch with this sweet set displayed on it. Love the design and that teapot goes very well with it! Enjoy...
This is so cute :o) When I was a little girl I wanted a small china teaset like my older sister had. Instead I was given a plastic set...I was NOT happy, lol!!
Hi Valerie! Oh, how precious this is! Now you are starting your Little Companion at an early age to become a Dishaholic! Bless her little heart! That little hutch is just the cutest thing and all of her little dishes.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Your little companion is one lucky girl. What a sweet tea set and that hutch is just darling. I hope she continues to enjoy collecting beautiful dishes as she grows older. There are lots of pretty treasures just waiting for her to come find them.
Hi, Valerie,
Please tell your sweet little companion that she has a beautiful tea set and a darling hutch to display it in!! You are starting her off right with a wonderful collection of things she will always cherish. Thank you for stopping by for a cup of tea today and blessings to you, sweet friend! Vicki
How very sweet! Love it that the teapot matches so well. Glad that it was acceptable :-)
