Welcome!
Since Valentine's Day is this week I am using my most romantic pink china for tea today.
As many of you may remember this pretty tea pot and matching heart shaped plate were a gift from my romantic hubby a few years ago. They came from a local gift shop and there are no markings on the bottom in case you were wondering.
Pretty pink tea cups for our tea today.
I Love these Teacups too.
Help yourself to the scotch cookies-don't worry I have more but I wanted you to see the pretty pattern on the plate.
An old hand crocheted heart.
Doesn't that cake look delicious-did I fool you even for a second. Love my vintage pillbox hat but a cake would taste better!
A hand painted tea cup.
We had a beautiful sunny day here today but I hear some snow is headed our way again tonight, followed by rain~oh well it is only February!
I am hosting a small tea party for some friends on Wednesday so I am looking forward to that.
I am joining Rose Chintz Cottage today for Tea Time Tuesday.
Hope you all have a lovely romantic week!

I'm glad your weather has calmed. Your table looks very pretty and I love the tea-cups. They are all gorgeous. I bet it is a real treat to go to one of your tea-parties. Hugs, Deb
So, so pretty!! I used to have a crocheted heart just like that but it went thrifting. ;( It was always on our sewing box at home and held straight pins.
Beautiful teacups, Carolyn! I love the different patterns. We had such a humid Summer last year, I'm not in any hurry for it to get too warm too quick. I could do without snow though and so far we have been lucky here.
This is so pretty. Your hubby is a real sweetheart :) Love the hyacinths in the collage - they are a pretty color. ~Susie~
Such a romantic Valentine's Day tea table with pretty china and delicious cookies!
Oh Carolyn, I love your vintage croqueted heart! My mother had a similar one and I have it somewhere. I must look for it. I am so sentimental.
We had four inches of rain Sunday and more to come for the next two days BUT we need it!
Such a pretty setting and so sweet!
Dear Carolyn,
Your valentine tea time is beautiful. Love your pretty teapot and teacups. Lovely setting. Thanks for sharing.

Your teapot and heart shaped plate are absolutely beautiful!!! I'm so sorry I live so far away - I'd love to have tea with you.
Dear Carolyn,
How I love everything about that teapot-the shape, the base, the roses...it is so lovely and the plate too! And your darling hubby bought it for you...perfect!
Wish I could visit-in any season-you make them all so beautiful-you bring out the best in all.

Such a pretty post Carolyn. Your pink and floral teapot is one of my favorites and the pink hat looks nice on the cake plate.

Hello Carolyn
Your hubby chose a very pretty teapot and matching heart dish, a design to rival Royal Albert, which I love.
I knew it was a hat and being a pillbox, reminds me of Jackie O, whom I admired.
It's nice to visit so many friends for this special tea, and look at all the calories we're saving.

Hi Carolyn,
I love all the rosy and romantic china, and even a heart shaped plate, SWEET!! and your hat is delicious and calorie free:-)
Thanks for sharing tea :-)
Hugs,
Bella
Oh, all that china is so pretty...so rosy and so romantic!
Hi Carolyn,
Well, I'll eat my hat! It does resemble a coconut- covered creation and looks almost good enough to eat, doesn't it? Sweet. I am such a Pink gal, for so many reasons, as you know :-) Oh, how I wish we lived near. What fun we would have! Lol Tea parties are a LOVE. I can't wait to see the photos of your get-together. I bet you gals can get pretty wild - optimum word being 'pretty'. Haha I'll look forward to a day when we can again share a cuppa. Sigh.
Hugs,

So pretty! I do remember that heart plate and teapot! (Yummy looking cookies too.) It's always like getting a beautiful greeting card when I visit. Such a lift!

Such a sweet setting, Carolyn. Love all your soft pinks and who could forget the pretty teapot and matching plate! Lovely. The pillbox really could pass for a cake. Happy Valentines Day!
Blessings,

Oh Carolyn, when I saw the "cake," I thought, now how did she make that "lacy" outer layer? Then I read where it was a hat. You had me fooled! Ha! It looks so pretty.
Just loved the tea pot and heart-shaped plate, too. Very romantic looking.
Loved all. Susan
That was a delightful and pleasant thing for me to view at work on my break, a breath of fresh air.
Thank for posting it.

This is just so, so pretty, Carolyn. You've got me in the romantic mood for Valentine's Day, even though my hubby is out of the country this week. Lovely celebration, thank you!
JUST LOVELY!!!!!

Smiling at the pill box hat for a cake, how clever is that. Beautiful tea table.
Beautiful! I love your array of dishes!
Nice blog ;)
Would love for you to check me out at http://vintagevanessad.blogspot.com/
LOVE that hat! I admire them every time I see on in a vintage shop. I would really love it it those were to come back in style. It's the only type of hat that even remotely looks good on me.
Your crocheted heart is really pretty too. I collect those.
This is my most favorite Tea Pot in the world..every time I see it...my heart skips a beat...I have always wanted to know who it was made by... but I just read it didn't have a marking to tell...boo hoo...with love Janice
Hi Carolyn,
Such pretty china with pink roses and beautiful teacups. Would you happen to share the recipe for your Scotch cookies, they look so light and fluffy.
Hugs, Lynnie
