:: My Tea Set Arrived!

June 30, 2014

Nina Campbell Pink Heart Tea Set

Look!

My tea set arrived. I love it. So much. I am going to collect the other pieces for the rest of my life. I am. There is a pink set and a blue set and the previously mentioned green set (the one that was on Ladies of London!) I am not sure if I will ever be able to get hold of the green set, to tell you the truth. I can’t find it anywhere online, but it can go on my wish list and I’ll cross my fingers.

This china is by Nina Campbell. It’s her signature heart print tea set, designed back in the 70s. Nina is quite the fancy lady and apparently very friendly and lovely. She designed the Duke and Duchess of York’s place and makes fabric and wallpaper as well as the loveliest tea cups in the universe. She also advocates charming your bank manager with quirky spectacles, preferably heart shaped ones. Nice one!  I advocate afternoon tea in heart-y tea cups. Not with your bank manager though. Unless he/she is ultra nice. You can wear glasses if you want. I think I will because I am going quite blind.

Hope you are drinking tea!

Hope your day was lovely!

Also: I wrote a tiny bit about this in my newsletter too!

PS: I’ll be back tomorrow to tell you all about The Photo School!
