Guests were greeted with these jewelled party hats. The hats signified how much I treasured their friendship. They also hinted at the pampering treats that have been prepared.
Paramount to the success of a tea party is tea. I filled handmade tea bags with different varieties of custom-blends. And tagged each bag with the ingredient list for easy selection by the guests. There were also freshly baked scones and tempting sweet jams on the table.
Hope you enjoyed my afternoon tea party ideas. There will be lots more fun and exciting celebration projects on the Ruby Rock-It blog this week. Hope you'll go check them out. If you leave a comment here, you might just win yourself the entire Vintedge collection !
Linking up to these parties.

The hat reminds me of a small party affair in a castle during the olden days of England. It must have been hard to glue on the red and white pearls onto the hat! great job!
Love the hats...very very suave!
WOW-those are the kinds of crowns I need to walk around the house in! Simply stunning!

Sandy, this has got to be one of the most original ideas I've seen on the internet for ages. Who would've thought? I love it. I love a good tea party here in Australia too. I write a blog called Domesblissity where I feature thrifty and frugal recipes and tips and I would so love it if you shared this idea at my Thriving on Thursdays linky party. My readers would love this.
