MAD TEA PARTY 2016

Welcome to my garden - Please come in.
                              We're here to celebrate the grandest of occasions ....                          
                                         

Let's stroll along the garden path.
Through the Sunflower Patch ....


The bees are busy with their daily chores.
They'll be along shortly. They wouldn't miss it for the world ....


Come along Mr. Toad.
No time for stopping ....


Not for you either Hedgehog ....


Now let's hurry along
We're Late, We're Late .....


And there before us, beside a babbling brook,
"Was A Table Set Out Under A Tree" ...


A Mad Tea Party ....


At the table sat waiting our host
The March Hare ...


Looking ever so dapper !!!
A table filled with many magical delights ...


Colorful candies and cookies and cupcakes galore ...


Tea with sparkly sugar
and iced pink flamingo brew ...



Mr. Toad  got there
Just in time ...


Owl wouldn't miss it for the world ...


Butterflies dance from flower to flower
Resting their silky wings from time to time ...


Stories  shared
And everyone giggles ....


And as the moon rises in the sky
And the sun puts itself to bed ....


The guests head home.
Mr.Toad bids all a goodnight, as they pass by his home ....


Until we gather again
For another grandest of grand affairs !!!!



Thank you for stopping by my Mad Tea Party, it was a pleasure to see you. I hope you enjoyed your visit.
Thank you Vanessa, for putting together another fun Mad Tea Party, it was SO much fun.

  1. Now I am feeling garden shame. I can use the excuse that our heat is just prohibitive but I believe I must be lazy. Beautiful and delicious party. I encourage everyone to scroll down to the next cookie post as well!

  7. Your sunflowers look stunning. And your entire garden is magnificent--I'm particularly taken by Mr. Toad, such an elegant fellow. And the yummies, of course. What's a party without yummies!

    Happy Mad Tea Party! ♥

  15. So many sparkles and sprinkles! Just love me some sparkles. I am intrigued by the way the cupcakes were displayed. Are those sprinkles under them? However you did that, it looks lovely.

    1. Hi Lynda - thanks for topping by.
      It's actually shredded crinkle paper that I stuffed into the candle holder before placing the cupcakes on top :-)
      I love finding other ways to use household items :-)

  16. Just adorable...and it all looks delicious. I think I would eat all of your treats and make myself most unwelcome. Gluttony at its worst. Happy Tea Party - loved all of the festive colors. ';)

    I'm a day-late to the fun and just now getting around to each party, but if you haven't already, do drop by and say hi. :)
