Cups & Saucers

                     I just inherited yesterday about a dozen cup & saucer sets.  They're all vintage floral china, and very pretty in a shabby chic way.  Some are marked (Sevres or Limoges and DeHavilland) but most aren't that well-bred.  Some are cracked, and I'm afraid to drink out of them, so I was wondering if you all could suggest something creative to do with them besides just put them all in a cupboard behind glass.

I haven't unpacked the other 2 boxes yet, but they're marked "salt cellars" and "cream & sugar sets" ... :roll:

                     My ex used to use old teacups for starting seedlings in--they looked a little nicer in the windowsill than clay pots.

                     They're good for flower arrangements, too.

                     And not bad for skeet.
