Everything's Coming Up Roses


'Everything’s Coming Up Roses' is a song from the 1959 Broadway musical Gypsy: A Musical Fable, with lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and music by Jule Styne. It was most famously sung by Ethel Merman.

Everything's Coming Up Roses for Mother's Day!
A beautiful pink rose teacup and saucer, a vintage baby's silver spoon (my hubby's) and a pretty little doily...everything is appropriate for all ladies who love PINK, roses and fine china!

Another close view...

Isn't the saucer lovely?

Settled on a dark green background of pink flowers...

How about this side of the teacup?

I'm so happy I can share on this Mother's Day this pretty little demitasse teacup and saucer I bought on a trip around the top of the state of Michigan many years ago.

Backstamp:
Fine Bone China
Royal Stuart
Made in England

And a pretty pink Happy Mother's Day rose mosaic...

    I'll be right over, but I'm going to need more that just a spot of tea... Last stitch in the border is done....yipee...You are going to love it when your's is done. Can't wait to see if you lined up or went straight.

    Should have mine posted tomorrow, but after a trip to the Post Office. Have you found that new Macro lens getting heavy yet? Looks like you are having a great time with it.

    Happy Mother's Day,
    Kate
