Getting ready for The Tea Party……

OK Ladies (tea pots) Start your Engines……..   These are the Tea Pots I have collected over the years for the Grand Tea Party. Of course It’s more for me than Darianne. We all know where she had it last year (ugh!) at Pump it Up. This magical Tea Party is so much more fun to put together. All the Tea Pots are going to have tags that say "Drink Me" and the pastries are going to say "Eat Me" just like Alice in Wonderland. All mixed-matched Tea cups and saucers, vintage of course. Each girl will be getting one of these. Scrumptious bracelet’s

I was not going to make a hat this year because I am having the girls wear all of Dariannes vintage Hats. She asked me if she was getting something made for her…..ok, ok already. I made one on Saturday night, not anything like the pretty ones I see in peoples blogs, but this is it girl.. I got a party to put on! Not leaving husband out of the work either, sorry honey. I have a list of songs for him to download, including the music that is played at The Tea cups ride at Disneyland. Reminds me of when Me and Dede were there last year and Darianne was breaking her neck just to say hi to Alice.

Here is a picture of a Lollipop center piece :  They can pick one and take home. I am telling you, it is too much fun…. I am dreaming Alice in Wonderland every night.  I spent the best Day with Darianne on Saturday. The night before I mapped out some Thrift stores in another town. I felt like I was back in Phoenix. Cheap, and I cannot tell  you the luck we had, I will just have to show  you. Darianne and I call it Treasure hunting. She had 8 dollar for the day. I had 40…and this is what we found……….. Darianne found a Victorian doll (in the Box) for 5 dollars. I found lots of vintage trims, antique beads, a vintage flashcard game, 2 vintage English tins, a pack of vintage math flashcards, antique gold stars, vintage  books,  antique Chinese lady postcards,wallpapers and much more with a great lunch to end our day. Love that girl… she is so much fun to Thrift with. Here she is back from a day at the pier. See the last little sign of the accident on her forehead? Thank God she is alright……more pictures after the party.
