Teacup Thursday: Peacock Teacup

-

The Peacock has held the world in fascination for many centuries! It's also embodied many various symbols in religions and cultures. Out of all that I've read this is what I liked best about the Peacock's Symbolism - that it is thought to  symbolize "Renewal". Often peacocks are pictured with their heads turned to their tale feathers, every year they grow a new set of tale feathers, representing 'renewal'. So with that in mind, I hope you all take a moment today to pause, enjoy a cup of tea and 'renew' your spirit! ~ Miss Spenser

    How beautiful! I have never seen a peacock cup and saucer. Still trying to get back to normal after the MT trip. I had so much fun.
