My Nan's 90th birthday tea party 25.09.2011

Just wanted to share a lovely day with you....my nan's 90th tea party in the garden. The cake stands were out to hold selections of lovely scones, cupcakes and tarts.....





We used lots of collections old tea cups and saucers, plates, lace tray cloths and doilies to do small flower arrangements which looked fab!
 and the cakes and bakes were yummy also...



My paper bunting was put to good use to decorate the gazebo's with old pictures of Nan through the years ...

A new cake stand with a teacup and saucer on the top tier...great for holding cheese straws!

 All in all we had a lovely day and the weather managed to stay fine which was a bonus! You can see these cake stands at the Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair, GNCCF, Manchester next month from the 20th-23rd October 2011.
