Good afternoon everyone. Today I brought out some of my favorite pieces from past tea parties. I just love this pink and white checked tablecloth, and I especially love it with the aqua mixed in with it. I've been wanting to share my cherub plates with you for awhile. I have had these for years and years. Aren't they sweet?
I wrapped some pretty white silk roses with their stems around the napkins. The cup and saucer in the photo below is one of my favorites.
Aren't these macaroons delicious looking? I actually took one of these and had paint matched to it. The colors are divine.
The hydrangeas came from my garden. The pretty cake on the pedestal is not real. I keep it in the dining room all year long on my tea cart and it's gotten a little faded over the years, but it's still adorable. The cake pedestal is made from old lamp parts. I purchased this one and then I copied it and made one myself. I love how they add different heights to my tables when I'm serving tea.
Below are some of my hand painted pieces. I like to pick up strays every now and then. The hand painting is exquisite.
There is no mark on the plates or I would tell you who they are manufactured by.
Happy Sunday everyone. Thanks for joining me today. As always, I enjoy your visits.

Yay..I get to be first!! That is so pretty and feminine. Those handpainted pieces are gorgeous. I bet they were done by someone who does china painting. I have a few pieces from a local woman and it reminds me of those. That's why no manufacturer label I bet. Very pretty, I would come to tea if I was closer!
