Granddaughters Tea


Hello everyone, 
I'm happy you came to visit My Cozy Corner. 
This past weekend my granddaughters had a tea party under the pergola. A few weeks ago I was getting ready for this tea. HERE And today the girls are going to drink cold pink lemonade, eat strawberries and nibble on a shortbread cookie while enjoying some cousin time. Its been a year since they've been together. 
The girls set the tea table and sat back to enjoy a late afternoon snack. 
While I was visiting the Lavender Farm last month I bought this darling little frenchy centerpiece.  Perfect for the girls tea. 
Petites Fleurs means Little Flowers. I have four Little Flowers visiting me.
Many flowers are going to be shown off in this little rustic container. 
A petite spoon and a delicious shortbread cookie on the saucer of my thrifty 'Haviland' china.
I found a sheer window panel on clearance and I made four sheer napkin covers.
 I designed and made the blueberry napkin rings to use with the blue linen napkins and the new sheer covers. The total cost of napkin project was $5.00.  

The lace trimmed eyelet tablecloth I found at my favorite thrift shop a couple of weeks ago. And the flatware is 'First Love' my wedding silver pattern. 
Ava, Lexi, Beth and Olivia are ready to start having some Summer Fun.
Please follow along this week as I enjoy a wonderful week photographing a vacation with my  granddaughters.

    What a fun summer tea party with your beautiful grandchildren Betty. They must be enjoying the school holidays. They did a good job in setting the table too. The napkin holders are unique and very creative. Pink lemonade is so quenching.

    Enjoy,

    Aida

    I remember them at last year's tea - they have grown.

    They are so beautiful - and I think it is absolutely awesome to be making tea memories.

    Love this post.

    Your china, little flowers holder, clever napkins and rings - all look awesome too.

    The table and special touches you've made for their tea party are lovely. I've not yet had all four of our granddaughters together for tea yet but your gathering has me thinking of planning something.

    Granddaughters ARE the most beautiful of flowers, I agree. What a lovely time for them to spend together and for you to share and witness! They'll always remember that they had tea at grandma's house! ~Zuni
