Blue Fascination

We went to a quick spring trip and I saw some little blue flowers on the road. The first thought that came into my mind was "I have to make a teacup/flowers/ribbons composition with this color!"
So, here it is...

Nature gives us so many colors and shapes!

The stones, the fruits, those cute little flowers... 

 Light blue, dark blue... 

I hope you like!

Flowers and Tea

In our garden we have a quince tree... and in Spring it gaves us a lot of beautiful flowers!

I want to share with you this beauty.

Also is a good opportunity to make a photo of one antique teacup from my collection!

I love this teacup - the sweet and pastel colors, the flowers painted  and the touch of gold...

Why not taste an Italian Easter desert with those precious?
Here´s again, the "squarcella"!

You can make the same, with flowers from your garden or those you see everytime on the road, a teacup that you like a lot and some yummy desert!
Life is incredible - when we add some beauty and flavor, it becomes awesome! 

I hope you like it! :D

(someday I´ll post here my collection of doilies, ribbons and another elements that I allways put on my photos)

Sweet Easter!

Our 2013 Easter Tea Party was so cute!
I was inspired by colors, our garden and candies...

I put a lot of different elements on the table... 

 Look this pretty "Little green house teapot": 

This amazing bunny was a gift from my partner. I wanted to use it at an Alice´s Tea Party (from Wonderland, of course) but this tablescape deserved to be awesome. So... here it is! 

And the best part: sweets!

Minicake:

Squarcelle, a traditional recipe from south Italy:

And chocolate Easter eggs - filled with chocolate ganache and orange cream!
(the bunnies are made with sugar paste and marshmallow)

I want to know what do you think about our Easter Tea Party!

Thanks for visiting my blog! :D

Spring, tea and books...

Spring, the season of flowers. A good reason to take a cup of tea and read a good book!

              

 I have so many books to read! I love books about fashion, drawing lessons, antiques...
And you, what kind of book do you prefer?

Well, let´s take some tea and read!

I hope this post motivates you to do that!

Spring miracle...

Spring is the season of beauty, scents, colors, creativity, love and much more...

Of course, we can have a lot of tea too! 

Take some inspirations from those incredible gifts!

An have a great Spring!

Bonsais and Sea Treasures Birthday Party

Today is Michele´s Birthday. He loves sea shells, starfishes and bonsais - so I made a tablescape with his passions!

I made the cake... so yummy! Tones of greens and flower petals.

We have a big collection of sea treasures (I have to make a special post for it). And I used some pieces for decorate.

Michele loved the decoration, the cake and the homage. I hope you like it too!
