It's not too early to start thinking about Valentine's Day. A perfect time to have a tea party.
Things of interest on table: blue plates from a charity shop; teacups/saucers/creamer purchased in Romania (by the Gardener, a man with a good eye. Brought home in a suitcase, poorly packed, I might add, but all intact!); placemats brought from India by my Asian friend, pink napkins and tablecloth from a yard sale 24 years ago and they were old then. Teapot and sugar bowl from Good Will. Pink depression glass cup (filled with M&Ms) from my grandmother. Antique stoneware white pitcher from, guess where? --an antique shop. This would be a good picture for one of those elementary observation skill games, for I can spot three errors in this tablescape!
Check out Between Naps on the Front Porch if you'd like to see more tablescapes.
I want to come to your house! You make me want to collect teapots....but mostly, I'd love to sit and talk. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteA very lovely table!
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing like tea on a winter afternoon!
ReplyDeleteLove the pieces from India from your friend. Since you mentioned it to play I spy I spy only two things missing but honestly it all looks lovely and I would love to have some tea with you at your pretty table. Thanks for sharing your tablescape with me today.

This is totally wonderful, but I fail to locate the errors. And I looked! :)
ReplyDeleteLove your drinking glasses as well, but head still spinning about your teapot being from Goodwill. Well done!
How can there be errors? It all looks lovely and each item has history and fond memories. I would love to sit a spell and chat the day away. Blessings, Tammy :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty table you have set. Anyone would enjoy having tea with you in that lovely setting. I couldn't spot the errors, though. Hope you'll tell us what they are.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Rhondi
I don't see any errors. It looks perfect to me. And I never thought of skewing placements instead of putting them square on the table. What a good idea!
ReplyDeleteAs a tea drinker, I love and appreciate your table and all it special pieces. LOVE the story of the gardener!
ReplyDeleteWhat was the occasion? It looks so beautiful..as your table always looks..
ReplyDeleteI didn't spot any errors, but I did click on the picture to look for the pink depression glass cup! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteErrors? No way! I love it, it's wonderful and full of life!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a wonderful day my friend!

I can't locate the 'errors', either! Lovely table!
