tomorrow we're having our springtime teaparty here on @ the rikrak studio.
i can't wait to show you what everyone will be wearing (thanks to the THRONGS of you that answered my challenge call last week! you're all going to look simply gorgeous!)

with mother's day on sunday, and spring springing all around... what better time to throw a festive little teaparty?! i know my own mommy & i sure love them!

so i'm readying the fancy little sandwiches.
brewing the tea.
baking dozens of sweet petit fours. (yum!)
and i'm setting out 6 different fun tea-party looks, all handmade or vintage inspired!

yay to teaparties.

see you tomorrow for your gorgeous outfit reveals!

  14. I'd love to attend any of these!
    If I were planning my own, I think I'd like an old farmhouse table under an apple tree, set with antique white linens and ironstone and old silver... the breeze softly blowing and delicate apple blossoms floating down here and there ~ but not in my tea! :)

  16. Oh, the Victorian setting is absolutely delicious! I want to sit in the Ritz Carlton Library overlooking the ocean and sip raspberry tea and apply lemoncurd daintily to my scones. Yum
