Teaparty with pirates and more
Weellll, what can I say, sometimes everyone does something wild and dareing. And so did I this week. I invited a very mean scary pirate over for tea... You know a clumsy rough tough guy... I made a few cup cakes and prepared the table... It looked great!! I put out my best china and favorit lace tablecloth (a recent thrift find) Decorated (or tried to anyway) a few cupcakes. The frosting was a little runny. I must have used the wrong kind, but they were tasty and looked good nonetheless... Well, beware ladies... Here he is...
You ask what was the occasion?? Well, I haven't seen the face of my dining table for about 2-3 months... It was hidden under heaps of paper, fabric, lace, sewing machine... and whatnot little knick knacks I find and don't put away. Mind you, not that it has been now put away... I just moved it from the dining table to another table... LOL....Yeah, found a card table and put it in the corner of the room so I could keep the dining table cleared up but still have my sewing machine ready to play. All the stuff is now piled over and under the card table. :o)
Now, I can enjoy my lace tablecloth and some of the roses from my garden on the dining table.
And to prove that my new crafty corner works just fine, I made a couple of tea cosies. The blue one is now on sale in my Etsy Store.
I hope everyone is having a great weekend. We finally see the sunshine after 4 continous days of clouds and rain showers. We have a busy week comming up. My boy is going to turn 5 years old this thursday... Boy, seems like yesterday... he was only a couple of inches tall and less then 10 pounds heavy... Now hes turning 5, and already half my height.
I guess that's it for today...

Its a good feeling to be able to see your table top again. I started using card tables a long time ago and couldn't live with out them now. They sure save a lot of clutter from having to be moved from one place to another!
ps- scary pirate!!
awww, how could a pirate that cute not be sweet? Especially after eating one or two of those cupcakes!
Love your tea cozies too.
Sonia, your pirate is quite the handsome fellow, isn't he???
So funny you should say that about your dining table...mine is the SAME way!! This is why I can never show pictures of my dining room on my blog!!! LOL
Love your tea cozies!! How is the etsy coming along??? I hope you are getting a ton of sales!

Sonia, I know how any table big enough can be a magnet for stuff sometimes!! Your tea party reminded me of the baking day my grandson and I had with my Easy bake oven! Isn't it grand how the litle guys try to please our girlish ways ? Lori
What a lovely Pirate! your table looks great! i have the same issue with my coffee table!!!
What a handsome swashbuckling little pirate! I'd love to have a tea party like that sometime. Your table looks beautiful ~ hope you do better than me at keeping it that way. My hubby finds it a real fun thing to crud up my table the minute he finds a clean flat surface! :0)

Hi Sonia!!!
I was just going back over my Tea Party Post and wanted to check up on you! And what are you doing BUT having A TEA PARTY!!!
Your son is now 5 years and one week!
****Happy Happy Birthday # 5****
He looks like a fierce pirate..."savy"? But those big blue eyes give him away!!! Littlie boys(sons) have a very special quality about them. I wish many many blessings for him and to you also!
I must say-thanks for the card table idea! You should see my dining room...very prettily filled up with my daughters vintage fabrics and banners.
With Kindness,
Mary
