A Garden Tour Tea. . .

When the Brunch Bunch Ladies gather,
these three things are a given. . .
food, laughter and prayer!

To honor my guest,
I set a simplistic Garden themed tablescape!

I began with a vintage white damask tablecloth and
orange scalloped floral place mats, 
then I added my everyday white porcelain dinnerware 
and everyday Oneida flatware.

Wanting to keep this tablescape totally feminine,
I used an ecru linen gauze topper with embroidery 
as an overlay to accent the centerpiece.

Everyday stemware served as our water goblets
and my rose etched crystal for a 'party' refreshment!

Using a triple napkin folding technique from Susan @
Between Naps On The Porch, gave a decorative touch
while providing the menu to also become a place card!

Placing the napkin atop the dinnerware,
balances the color palette around the table. 

Grouping together newly purchased decorative urns 
with a cauliflower tea pot from Nell Hill's 
made a unique centerpiece.

Two individual white scalloped bud vases
filled with Gingersnap and Creamy Ivory Rose buds 
with stems of Purple Salvia from On Crooked Creek's Gardens
extended the centerpiece with a touch of added color.

Dessert was served

Following our lunch, 
we gathered in the upper level Living Room
and enjoyed each others company.

from The Herb Garden!
