Cupcakes in Teacups

Yesterday we had our beautiful spring party
and the cupcakes in teacups were
just so pretty
And my china collection worked perfectly



(Wish I knew how to stop this happening after I've editted)
I had such fun putting the flowers together

I mixed real with artificial

With some real fruit

It was a lovely afternoon
with such gorgeous friends

I love them dearly!

    Thank you for such a lovely lunch. As usual the setting was beautiful. All the little details were noticed. The pom poms you made, the floral tablecloth outside, the crystal weights on the tablecloth, the beautiful flowers inside. But my favourite was the cupcakes. It was so gorgeous. I love that I get to come to your events and bask in all that is so pretty:)

    Hi Fiona
    Your spring tea party looks delicious!!! I love the abundant use of colour... so full of life and happiness .... you did a great job!! and your china collection is just as charming... I wouldn't worry about the sideways pic... just call it an 'arty angle' hehe

    Spring has been quite tentative here.. doesn't really know what it wants to do...

    Thanks so much for your lovely comment.. hope you have a wonderful weekend... xxx Julie

    FIONA! WHAT A GREAT SURPRISE! First of all, those cupcakes in teacups is such a magnificent idea! Light and white, pink and frivolous, this is a delicious post! I love your idea about our kids being pen pals! HOWEVER, I must run the idea past my colleague, Molly. We do have an assignment where the kids must write a "Friendly letter", and when I was teaching French language arts, we had pen pals in France! Now that we are teaching English language arts, our pacing map has barely any room on it for what I love the most: CREATIVE freedom! We may be able to churn out one letter, but let me check. What grade do you teach? Let me know and I will speak to Molly about it. What a sweet gesture, dearest!

    HAVE A MAGNIFICENT WEEK! Anita
