Tea Party Plans

Well it's time for another tea party with the girls!!! The invitation list will include my mother - Corky, my daughter-in-law Taryn, my almost sister-in-law Dawn and my three granddaughters, Casey who is 12, Shelby who is 6 and Kloey who is 3. We already had one and had such a good time we are planning another one. I have posted some pictures here of our last one so you can see what a great time we had...I think we had as much fun planning it as we did having the actual party!!! LOL!!!

At our 1st tea party we all had hats that we decorated with big bright flowers and ribbons...they turned out really cute. I bought my daughter-in-law a nice little teapot to keep as a hostess gift...she loved it!!! She used some nice teacups and saucers that she had received from her grandmother...my mother used a very special one that I had bought for her that was vintage. I also had a couple of little gifts for a couple of games that we played...one was a tea ball, and the other one was teabag holder. They really liked that I had little gifts for them that were tea themed.

I've been getting an awesome selection of bagged and loose teas from Swapbot and I love sharing them, so this is a perfect opportunity to do so.

I will be going over to their house and we will decide on the menu and make handmade invitations, place mats and place cards...they love doing crafts with G-K - that stands for Grandma Kathy...

My hope is that when they grow up they will continue with this new tradition that I am starting and that they enjoy it as much as I do!!!

Well I'm off to make my list of crafty goodies that I will need to take with me...we will make it a day and have lots of fun making plans for our "Valentine Tea Party"
