How fabulous! Love the bag, but I love what's in them more! I never met a floral teacup I didn't love and yours are exquisite! One of my favorite treasures is a teacup that was my grandmother's.

They are beautiful! I don't have any little hand-me-downs like that, but I am starting to collect them myself from local thrift shops. So one day, maybe I'll have a bag of teacups to give to my daughters. x
