Trillium Tea Cup and Saucer
via – Vintage ROYAL ALBERT Fine English Bone China by Sonupsales on Etsy. Trilliums are the flower of Ontario. This would be a nice tea cup and saucer set too.

Canadian Themed Teacup and Saucer Collection
Today I found the second of these Canadian series of bone china teacups and saucers. I love to have something nice, sort of romantic and traditional and Canadian too.

This is such a great idea for putting crochet flowers together. I found this on Etsy. It makes me think of the bone china posies I collect. These aren’t nearly so breakable and easy to chip! Squidoo: Crochet Flowers
