welcome welcome, dear friends!
so glad you could join us for today's springtime teaparty.

last week i invited each of you to don a lovely springtime-inspired handmade or vintage frock, choose a beautiful accessory to go with it, and join me for a lovely little party.

and what gorgeous responses!
you all look just splendid.
thanks so much to everyone who answered the call.
and while i couldn't include photos of how fantastic we ALL looked, i thought you might like a peek at how some of our favourite handmakers look for the party!

so i've set the pretty linens out, and the cakeplates filled with pretty little desserts await!
so grab a cup of tea, join us in the sunny springtime garden.

gosh ... life can get pretty busy, can't it!?
but it's my hope you'll enjoy a little teaparty break, from whatever you're up to today!
may we always make enough time for a little mini-teaparty break, yes?

yay tea parties!
honey, lemon or a spot of milk with your tea?

skip. skip. skip-to-my lou, darlin's!

i just love a pretty springtime teaparty.
and while parts of my lovely land are teetering between tulips & heatwaves one day, and snowstorms & winter boots the next,(good heavens!) it's never to early to DREAM about a springtime party!

so i'm inviting you all to a cyberly one here next week. we'll have fancy little sandwiches; pastel-coloured macaroons; and use all those pretty teacups sitting regally up in the china cabinet. won't it be splendid?

and no... thanks for asking, but you needn't bring anything. just your lovely self! but you do have a job: show me what handmade or vintage delight you'll be wearing! i'll include your outfits in a post next week! woohoo!


just...
1. choose a fun frock (or something else) springtime-y to wear. think fresh, fun, frolicky!

2. choose a fun accessory for the look.

3. cut & paste a direct link where i can find each item on the net into your comment.

4. make as many 2-part outfits as you'd like (feel free to include goodies from your own work, too, if you' like!)

5. next week i'll include 10 of your looks in a follow up post, and i'll be sure to link to your lovely shop/site, too! great free advertising for creative, dressed-to-the-nines YOU!

6. and hey... if there are LOTS of entries, i'll get the random.org generator to pull a few for us to see!

ta ta for now, nicies!
see you at the teaparty!
