'T' is for Tea Time Tablescape!

Hi everyone! Today's little setting is fit for royalty, completely adorned with ruby and pearls! I'm joining the High Tea Party and Mizz Jenny's Alphabe Thursday with a re-post of my Rubies and Pearls Tablescape from back in April. 
I've been collecting rubyware for years and just love the rich color. 

For such a fancy event even Fernando wore a black tie!

And a little eye candy for dessert.
Have a happy day!

    Your table is set for 1 but I would love to sit and chat too. Who would not want to have tea at this darling table. And I think Fernando is a fesive chap!

  26. Hi Lynn...

    My friend, your rubyware is simply gorgeous! Of course, you know how much I love red! Hehe! It's so funny because I don't even own one piece of rubyware...I may have to remedy that! You certainly set a lovely tea table, my friend! I love how you draped the pretty strand of beads over the teapot! Ohhh my...those roses are sooo very beautiful! They are really unusual looking...the undersides of the petals being so light colored. I wonder what kind they are...do you know? Thanks for sharing your lovely tea with us and Fernando looked quite "dapper" all dressed up in his black tie! Love it!!!

    Warmest wishes,
    Chari @Happy To Design
