Hello and welcome to my Christmas Tea Parties hosted by Jan & Tom Rose Haven. Go to their blog and you can get a list of participants. Thank you so much Jan and Tom for hosting this fun event.
I had two tea parties over the holidays so I thought I would share them with you. Angel above stopped by to wish you a nice day!
My first tea party is just a collection of all my "Old~fashioned Teatime" accesories.
I'll just let you scroll through and enjoy all the pretty pictures. Feel free to click on the pictures to get a nice big view! I don't have a formal dining room, we gave that up when we became empty nesters. We use that room now as a family room which joins this country farmhouse kitchen. Now the upstairs is just used for guest bedrooms and my sewing room.
An old~fashioned tea set.
Hollie Hobby has joined us today.
We sat, chatted and looked for some good recipes in my Gooseberry Patch cookbooks.
A pretty round robin book that some friends and I put together during the holidays.
In my last Pink Saturday post I told you that I would let you see what all the pretties were in my christmas gift from my daughter Jen of Jen's Petal Palace. The top is just a peek of what's inside.
Just look at all these faux pasteries that Jen has made for me! Thank you so much Jen, I just love each and everyone!
That's it for my "Old Fashioned Christmas Tea". Now on to my "Blue Snowman Tea".
A collection of all things blue and snowmen.
The photo did not capture it but the snowman plates are 3-D. The snowmans nose sticks out, they are just so darn cute!
Some yummy pasteries and a selection of hot cocoa.
A few accesories and a pretty snowman box for a gift exchange.
One more thing I had to share with you from my Christmas decorating this year. I just love this shelf, I have had it since I first got married back in 1971. When my husband and I got married this colonial dark pine was the big thing to decorate with. I just love how my jadeite looks on it. My little hoosier to the right is still waiting for me to refinish it. Maybe this winter I will get to it. LOL
Here's Angel telling you good-bye and have a wonderful day! Enjoy the rest of the Tea Parties with Jan & Tom!

This cute little snowman teaset my daughter Jen bought for me when she was working in a florist shop a few years back. I just love it, thank you Jen!

Love the snowy drape on teh 3 tiered stand. Did you make it?
Your tables are just lovely. I love your 3 tiered server with the snow on it. I bet those snowmen plates are adorable with the dimension. Wish I could just sit down and chat a while. Thanks for sharing....

Hey! I know I'm a day late for the tea party, but let's just feast on leftovers and chat ...
I love your tea collections. I kept coming back to look at your picures when at work today and every time I found something new that I hadn't seen before. I'm sure I'll be back to see what other "treasures" I find!
OH MY OH MY OH MY...you always amaze me and I just shouldn't be shocked anymore because I know SHIRL STYLE and it is AMAZING! I have never heard of a lemonade cake. It looks terrific and your tables...did I say OH MY. Grand and glorious! I always love when you add the 70's touches like Holly Hobby. (this is what my mom calls Hobby Lobby...it's so cute!)
