May the friendships you make,
Be those which endure,
And all of your grey clouds
Be small ones for sure.
And trusting in Him
To Whom we all pray,
May a song fill your heart,
Every step of the way.~ Irish Blessing
Welcome to another Tea Time, dear friends~
I thought today would be a good day to share some green with St. Patrick's Day just around the corner.
Please come in and make yourself at home. I was unable to set up a tea table this week so I borrowed some photos from last year's party which I had set up in our front window. It was such a beautiful day with the sun streaming through the lace curtains, much like today.
I love this pretty teacup I won in a giveaway a few years ago. It is hand painted and a little work of art with its lovely shade of green sprinkled with sweet pink rose buds!
My Skye McGhie Chantilly Lace teacup is present as well at our tea today and beneath it all is a bit of green and cream toile. Breena, my little fairy, is joining the party too.
Would you like a shamrock cupcake with your tea? It won't be long and one will see dragon flies and honey bees flying about just like those on this plate.
Happiness is sharing tea with a friend.
Next week, March 18, I am hoping to host a Spring Tea.
My "Savour the Moment" Springtime Tea will be a celebration of the new season as well as Easter. Bring out your cupcakes, fairy cakes, bunnies, chicks, etc. and let's welcome this glorious season of new life together over a cup of tea.
My little fairy Breena and I thank you for coming to tea. I hope you all have a wonderful week and a Happy St. Parick's Day!
If you would like to join my party, simply share a favourite teacup, teapot, or a coffee mug and write a post about it.
May joy and peace surround you,
Contentment latch your door,
And happiness be with you now,
And bless you evermore. ~ An Irish Blessing

Sandi, I hope & pray you are doing better and haling quickly.
ReplyDeleteThat is one of the prettiest teacups, and I am tempted to covet it. What a lovely tea time. I am so glad I have participated in these teatimes on my blog because during my "down" times, I read them and remember anew all the blessings and good times I do have. This gives me hope and joy for the future too. Blessings to you, and thank you for hosting this tea time.

I meant HEALING quickly. :)But being hale & hearty is appropriate too.
ReplyDeleteHi Sandi,
ReplyDeleteyour tea cups are pretty and I love the green toile tablecloth.

Since I didn't see your St. Patrick's tea table last year, it's new to me this year - and it's just lovely!
ReplyDeleteI hope you're making progress in your recovery.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!

That green teacup is so delicate. Have a nice Saint Patrick's Day and I really hope for you, you'll be able to host the Spring Tea Party.
ReplyDeleteHi Sandi,
ReplyDeleteWonderful display of St. Patrick's Day Tea, as my memory stretches over the years I'm not recalling last years tea so this is all new and beautiful to me. Your table cloth and tea cups go well with your fairy and look inspiring as I look around at all the snow I found when I got home. I hope you are better than the last time we spoke. Blessings
Happy St. Patrick's Day Sandi!
ReplyDeleteYour tea cup is perfect, and your post so lovely! You always write such lovely posts!
Thank you so much for your heartfelt birthday wishes! I hold them dear.
Hugs,
Terri
Good morning, Sandi! I love your pretty little setting. I remember seeing your little fairy, Breena, around on other days! I have a new baby, Brenna,...almost the same! :) Hope you're having a great day and are feeling peaceful and well today. We've all had the cold this week but I think we're over the worst of it! Thanks for the party! This week's Homemaking Linkup is up and I would love to have you join, if you haven’t already.

Dear Sandi,
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your backpain. Hope it will get better soon. Your tea settings are so sweet, I love to see them always. How cute are those cupcakes. They make my mouth watering. Thank you for this lovely tea time and for hosting this sweet event although you have such pain.
Blessings to you,
Johanna
That is a lovely tea set! I love the pictures, God bless you always xx
ReplyDeleteGwen.
All so beautiful! I love St.Patricks Day .I am a pinch or more Irish and it's fun to think of that side of the family. Best wishes-Denise
ReplyDeleteHi Sandi,
ReplyDeleteThat tea table is lovely. The celadon green might be my most favorite spring green. It's always so fresh looking, isn't it? I also love the rim of the Chantilly lace tea cup. One year I bought two tea cups which were seconds because they were sitting a little crooked, but that was their charm. Happy St Patrick's day to you. Hope you have a lovely shamrock-y one. :)
How lovely everything looks - guess we were all thinking green and St Patrick's Day alike! Your treats look yummy too! Take care of that back!
ReplyDeleteYes I want one of those cupcakes I love cup cakes
ReplyDeleteI hope you don't mind we join you ? we are over T the Polka Dot Dress Form Ball having out tea
I showed one of my beautiful tea sets in my previous post about Buttons
