Hello everyone,
Last week I hosted a Vintage Tea Party on
our porch as many of you know.
It was a cloudy day but warm and no rain.So,here are
some of the guests arriving in all their finery!
My friend Snow and I spent
several hours doing the fun vintage
touches.
The cabinet above was an old radio cupboard
that I bought at a yardsale a couple of weeks ago.
We displayed Snow's (from Paraska's Place)
beautiful collection of Vintage linens.
We also used Snow's vintage tableclothson all the tables.
The banner was a pretty touch. .
The vintage aqua table.
It was kind of busy at serving time and so
I didn't get photos of the desserts on the tables.
Charming guests.
Elegant guest enjoying a garden tour.
It was fun giving the porch a vintage look.
Since I didn't get photos during the
tea I had to do my own little tea
with the leftover Sticky Date Pudding
caramel sauce and whipped cream and
a cup of tea.
Lastly, a little recap of some of the
vintage china with bouquets.
Thank you Snow and Jen for all your help!
Well,that's it for this year but hopefully
we can do one again next year.....hm,
what will our theme be next year?
If you would like to see more of my
teas you can preview or buy my

It is another beautiful day here and we are off
to enjoy some time out and about!
I am joining Between Naps on the Porch

Thank you for visiting,
Carolyn

After seeing the "preview" for your tea party at Tea Cup Tuesday, I simply had to come see more photos. Your guests must have felt very pampered. Your cabinet has a beautiful new life full of candy colored quilts! Thank you for sharing the lovely day with us.
ReplyDeleteDelightful and you have all the just right things for a vintage party. This would have been a very fun party to attend, and I have the perfect hat!
ReplyDeleteI'm crushing on that old radio cabinet, Carolyn. Brilliant! ~ Nancy @ A Joyful Cottage
