Between Naps on the Porch: St. Patrick's Day Tea on the Porch, Welcome the the 29th Tablescape Thursday!

Mar 12, 2009

St. Patrick's Day Tea on the Porch, Welcome the the 29th Tablescape Thursday!

St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner...let's celebrate with some tea out on the porch!

And of course, we must have green tea, since we are celebrating St. Paddy's Day. (The green tole tray was a wedding gift 30 years ago.)

I picked fresh flowers from the garden... Ahhh...their sweet, sweet fragrance is wonderful!

Little bees must have been tucked down inside the daffodils.

Because now they have settled right down on our spoons. But don't worry, they are friendly bees.

A little sugar with your tea? (Found this adorable shamrock tea set at A Classy Flea.)

How about some cream?

A Bee's-eye view...

If you were a bee, which flower would you choose?

So glad you could join me for tea out on the porch.

Let's do this again real soon!

Can't wait to see all the wonderful tablescapes posted for this Tablescape Thursday! :-)

My Italian husbans tells me I only have St. Patty's day to let it be known that I'm half Irish. So you would think that I'd do it up big and have a WONDERFUL dish display like yours. :( I love it. Now I have to go back and view it again.

I was looking for something similar at my local HomeGoods last week, but I guess I was a day or two too late because it seemed picked out and none of the good pieces completed a set. Oh, well...

Great table today! My eyes are feasting as I type! Happy Thursday!

The colours of your daffodils are adorable. The nice thing for me with winter coming our way in Australia is that I can follow your blog and others through spring. I can't wait, I can just imagine what you have planned for your spring tablesettings.

Thank you again, for hosting such a wonderful event, I am really enjoying being a part or your world each week.

Have a lovely weekend,

You might want to let some of the ladies know that it is impossible to post a comment on their blogs because the word verification thin doesn't seem to be working correctly! They may be wondering why they don't have many or any comments. You were so helpful to me in that regard.

Thanks,
