Was going through the family storage area and found a hardshell suitcase that was full of tea cups that are almost 100 yrs old or older. These are the fancy ones that were sold a cup & saucer at a time for special occasions.
Now I did think of putting up a shelf around the kitchen close to the ceiling as decoration, but I am loath to do so as I really don't like to dust. Much. So that idea is out.
Besides giving them away, or giving them to a friend that serves "high tea" and fresh veggie sandwiches on homemade bread, I am not sure what else to do with them. To be sure they have been in the family for generations, but why hold onto something that you can't use? Even if they are gorgeous...
Unless I could have help finding another purpose for them... Any ideas?
