Hi everyone!
Wow, I have been so busy lately that I have not had a tea party in two weeks! Well, I just had to stop things for a moment and enjoy the day.
I picked up this little teacup at a thrift store a few weeks ago. It is just so sweet!
I don’t normally buy these mini teacups but, I just couldn’t resist this one!
I had to share this sweet little flower growing on the shaded side of our home. Troy picked it up at one of the plant swaps earlier this Spring. We had no idea what it would look like. That is one of the fun things we enjoy about swapping plants. It is called Lemon Drop and is in the Primrose family.
I know, not a pretty location for this sweet little beauty but, it is thriving.
Such a pretty yellow flower! I really am thrilled to have it as an addition to our yard!
I just picked up this fun bright teapot at a yard sale. I thought it well worth the price of $1.75.
I have my little teacup sitting on a clearance yellow flower canapé plate from the Christmas Tree shops.
This beautiful cross stitch vintage linen came from a wonderful blogger I met. It is so delicate. The fabric is very fragile.
The pretty yellow embroidered napkins are probably my favorite napkins! They of course were thrifted quite awhile ago.
I used the little lonely napkin ring that was in the big bag of napkin rings I thrifted a couple of weeks ago. I wish I had a set of these.
I know a lot of you are like me when it comes to finding fun decor books at a great bargain price. We just HAVE to have them! I found these two Martha Stewart books at a local thrift store for $1.99 each.
They are so fun to just have some quiet time and look through. Always filled with fun ideas!
I enjoyed having you stop by for a visit today. I hope you had fun!
Don't forget, this Saturday (July 2nd) is our 2nd "Thrifty Tablescape" Party! Grab all those beautiful thrift finds and let's see your thrifty tablescape!
I am joining:
As always..Loved your setting..I was drawn to the yellow..so bright and cheery!

Time to send the husband and the Princess off to run an errand. Enjoy an hour by yourself browsing and sunning.
ReplyDeleteDiann you really do find the best things. The yellow is so bright and pretty. I love the embroidered cloth. Your vignettes are always so darling. Now I want a little tea for me. xo,
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling tea cup, Diann! You are the best-est thrifter; always finding great items. After reading your post on the herbs, I understand that thrifting to resell is part of your business. I believe your lemon drop is also called yellow loosestrife. I have some of it that my m-i-l gave me years ago. It's still thriving. Enjoy your summer and thanks for the tea today!
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Beth

ReplyDeleteDiann, what an adorable daffodil teacup/saucer!! I've never seen anything like it before - very attractive. I've been very attracted to 'yellow' lately, and your yellow napkins are wonderful, and the floral napkin holders adds such summery charm to them.
