Show and Tell Napkins

When my friend Candy had our friendship tea a couple of weeks ago, one of my friends, Melody brought me a precious gift. She has an embroidery machine and made me these lovely cream napkins with tea items embroidered on each one. There is a teapot, teacup, sugar and creamer. I think they are just precious!


I think they will be perfect with my tea set that my husband bought me a while back. That will be a future Tablescape!
I am off now to see all the other wonderful contributions to Kelli's Show and Tell Friday....see you there!

These napkins are beautiful! I love things like that!

I'd love to see pics of your golden books. I've got a bunch, but they aren't from the 50's and 60's. More like 90's, lol. But hey, if you ever get the chance to read Shel Silverstein, choose The Giving Tree. You won't be disappointed. It's a BEAUTIFUL book.

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Lovely napkins. I am praying your chemo goes well. It's a nasty little roadblock to life, isn't it?
