Happy Birthday Carmen!
April 24, 2008 by littlegemsession

For Carmen’s birthday I hosted a Tea Party! Carmen made a fabbo Pavlova, Shelly made Chocolate Eclairs and I made scones, pikelets and club sandwiches. I say!! We all wore aprons from my vintage apron collection and drank tea from Great Aunty Nora’s vintage tea service. Extreme girly fun was had by all! (full set on flickr)









yay for tea parties
that looks like so much fun. i am in love with that cake stand
this looks like a perfect afternoon. I am going to put on my apron now.

Awww, what bliss!
Are you sure you’re not English? Your tea party sounds perfect and so, so English!
I’m a huge lover of Bust magazine. I first brought it when it was in black and white and on really cheap paper. Haven’t seen it here though. Looked in the Wellington Borders when I was last there but couldn’t see it. Did you order yours from the States?
Hey, thank you for adding my link to your blog roll. Much appreciated.
Sorry, have just reread your post and see that the magazine came from the library. Wow - what an on to it library that must be!
Haha, yes Alison my mother was English.
Wellington Public Library is quite onto it with the mags it seems. You could prolly get a subscription?
SweetP that cake stand is very gorg aye? I got it at the dump shop would you believe?!
Fabulous day Sweeti! Thankyou! …can’t wait for the next tea party!
I love your tea cups! I’m delighted to find someone else that appreciates nice tea cups. Everything tastes better out of a china tea cup!
