STACK TWO OR THREE SETS OF TEACUPS AND SAUCERS FOR A TEA PARTY; PLACE SMALL MUFFINS, ETC. ON THEM; IT MAKES A PRETTY, UNUSUAL PRESENTATION.

E6000 glue works very well, but I'm sure any glue made for porcelain or ceramics would work. Adorable baby bunny thriftmeg!

What a fabulous idea! These are really cute, I'm sure that they make great gifts and I bet they would sell well at crafts fairs and such. They would be a cute fundraiser for your child's school too.
