Valentine's Tea Party 2011

Hello Blogger Friends!

I had a Valentine-themed tea party on February 12th and invited my mom and grandma. The tea table was all set up when my sweet guests arrived. I served them strawberry muffins, fresh fruit, and butter cookies dipped in chocolate.
My mom made that beautiful plate of chocolate chip scones and she brought lemon curd to go with it. Everything was so delicious!

I used my beautiful pink cherub dishes for this tea party. They were perfect for Valentine's!
Here is a close-up of those tasty butter cookies. They were plain when I bought them. I melted some semi-sweet chocolate chips and dipped one end of the cookie in and sprinkled Valentine pretties on the chocolate to decorate it up. They turned out so sweet!


Here is a great view of mom's scones. She even cut them into heart shapes and used red and pink sprinkles to go with our theme. They were SO delicious!

Here is the place setting for my tea table. I used a pink place mat with a lace place mat on top of that. I think it is so pretty!

I made these napkin rings out of scrapbook paper, chipboard, and embellishments. They go perfectly with the dishes! I had fun making them and they are just so sweet!


Here is my sweet Nanny and me. I was so glad she was able to come and be a part of our fun morning together. We always have so much fun talking and laughing. It is such a joy to have such special, wonderful ladies in my life!


Here is my mom and me. I was so thankful she could come too. She brought me a beautiful can she decorated and filled with Valentine candy for a hostess gift. It was so sweet and thoughtful of her to do that. I will have to take a picture and show you how sweet it is!

After we had tea and talked we did some shopping together. It was a really fun morning and I hope we can do it again soon. I am excited about decorating for spring so maybe I can have another tea party for Easter!
I hope you enjoyed my Valentine tea party pictures. Please leave me a comment and have a wonderful day!
Blessing to You!
Love Tammy
