I am a sucker for small things and especially the ones that do not stand a chance at making it out of the thrift stores.
This little cup seemed like one of those items. I used to work in in a thrift store so I know these unfortunate items well. It is the little tea/espresso cups, that not only have they lost their saucer but they are alone, the last one. They don't ever seem to make it out, instead they keep getting moved around on the shelf and then after some time they end up being chipped and pulled off the shelf and throw in the trash (recycling bin)..... a sad story but true:)
I am going to work hard on changing their fate when I see them, I am going to bring them home, wash them up, then take their photos and put them in my shop.
They are a perfect size for taking your pills/vitamins in the morning. I am imagining all sorts of little mixed cups lined up on the window sills above kitchen sinks ..... each one belonging to their own person. (my quirky thrifter pledge:)
