Autumn Tea–Sept 30, 2013

It’s a lovely day today, so the deck would be an ideal spot to have a cup of tea and a cookie.
A lap quilt makes a nice table covering.

I found these autumn plates at Home Goods last week.

Hi Millie,
Your plates are really pretty and I love your apple teapot. Very cute! Looks like you have had a beautiful day like we had here today. I think we are getting our Indian Summer now. The past few days have been so lovely and warm. Wish we could have a few more months of it! Thank you for coming to tea and have a beautiful week.

Blessings,
Sandi

Your autumn plates are so pretty. Having a tea party outdoors to celebrate the waning sunshine and warmth is a great idea. Love that apple topped dish, too.

Check out all the lovely posts at  A Stroll Thru Life I tried 2 figurines in my cloche: First is an Aynsley sheep which my Mom gave me.       Our little snowman violinist by Lennox is in the second set.       This is fun!

Party Day…Our Deck

Rhondi is hosting a porch party, and I am very excited about seeing decks, porches, etc. from many places, encompassing climates and decor of all sorts. We don’t have a porch, so we are welcoming you to our deck today. Please keep our Manitoba climate in mind, as you will notice our summer is just beginning, and plants are not very advanced yet. The afternoon sun is highlighting part of the table, and the rest is shaded by the umbrella. I have set the table in green and white, and because it will just be two of us , it is casual. Before the sun goes down, let’s see what else is on the deck….    another table with some lanterns and plants.. ..a bakers rack which I sprayed light green and which holds green plants.. ..a bench with more of the tropical print…   …and a grouping of potted plants Looking out at the yard, the sun is streaming in from the West. the days are longer now and it is still light….at 8:45… …and now finally night has fallen…it is now 10...
