Presenting My Royal Albert Teacup Chandelier!
Hubby bought this new black iron colonial chandelier for my birthday last year. I love the cottage look of hanging teacups from a chandelier but since this chandelier doesn't have open hook arms I just couldn't decide how to hang the teacups. I was afraid ribbons would come undone. And then it came to me...using plastic tie tags! I think it needs some ribbons too to hide the plastic ties. I could go crazy changing ribbons to fit the season and/or holiday. |

| Gosh...I've never seen blue flowers ringing the inside of a teacup like this. It is so pretty. |

| Royal Albert is celebrating 100 years of English craftsmanship and these five cups represent a pattern manufactured from each of the first five decades of the 20th Century. |

I found this set of teacups at the Edmonton Mall up in Alberta, Canada in a Royal Albert store on our way to Alaska this Spring. They had other sets from other decades too...so it was a hard decision which set to pick. Of course, I managed to find a safe place in our RV to store it all through the Alaska Highway and into and around Alaska and back home. I'm so glad it made its way home without breaking.
