Lilacs & Lace Teas

Memories of the sweet aroma of roses from my grandmother's garden trellis, while sipping hot tea, will always hold a special place in my heart. As a little girl, I remember her collection of tea cups and saucers; such an array of designs, from dainty floral prints to contemporary patterns, My favorite, which she gave to me, and I still use today, has a delicate design of violets and soft pastel green leaves. Violets also grew wild in her garden as I recall, so that particular flower stirs up fond memories for me of my lovely grandmother.
From that first cup and saucer, I began collecting more. From England, I was given a bone china cup with a dainty pink rose pattern.~a very special gift from my mom.
Surrounded by lovely china, fresh flowers, and enjoying delightful company over a cup of tea, has always been my passion. Who doesn't wish to be in an atmosphere of elegant charm away from the busyness of life, and a reminder of simpler times? Or what little girl would not want to feel like a fairytale princess dressed in lace, pearls, white gloves and fancy hats?
My goal is to provide a lovely environment where ladies and children can gather for a Victorian Tea surrounded by the charm of days gone by.
The enchantment of Tea parties is something I would love to share with others, because ultimately, I love to make people feel special.
