A St. Patrick's Day Tablescape: Welcome to the 184th Tablescape Thursday!

Happy Tablescape Thursday!  Well, things don't always go according to plans.  I had a tablescape all ready for this week.  When I went to bed on Tuesday night, the table on the porch was set and ready to be photographed.  Unfortunately, I awoke really sick Wednesday morning and as the day progressed, it got much worse.  Have you ever had a kidney stone?  I think that's what it was because around 6:30 PM, the horrible pain ended suddenly, like someone flipped a switch.

Your comments on yesterday's post were so much fun to read when I wasn't in bed.  Don't worry, I'm totally back to my old feisty self today.  Tired but much, much better!

Since I wasn't able to take pics of the tablescape I had set for this week, I'm sharing an "oldie but goody."  This St. Patrick's Day tea was first posted on March 12, 2009.  Hope you enjoy this tea 'scape!


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.

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?

How about some cream?  Several folks have asked in the past if this set is Belleek.  It's not.  I found it at A Classy Flea for a song.  I love it and so wish I could find more pieces.  It doesn't have any markings on it.

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.

You'll find another St. Patrick's Day table setting HERE and HERE.
