    Happy, Happy Halloween AND Withes' Tea Party!!! Oh, my....such a pretty hostess for the event. This is probably the most elegant tea party ever! WOW! I love your pretty soft neutrals with just a pop of teal and orange. Your vignette under your chalkboard is so pretty, and I love the little touches, like the paper fortune tellers. I used to love it when friends made them in school!

    I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

      May I ask about the adorable print of the girl with the long blonde hair in the red top? Who is the artist and what is the title of the piece? I am intrigued by it. You have such charming taste. Beautiful party. **sigh**

      Hi, Gibby. Thank you for visiting my tea. You know, I don't know, and I have researched the internet trying to find out. I was intrigued by the subject and bought the print in Venice. It doesn't say who the original artist was. It looks like someone screen printed it. It is on what appears to be handmade paper. xoxo Su

    4. gibbygoo5610/24/2015 8:15 PM

      I also LOVED your White Rabbit portrait you also bought in Venice that you showed in your Alice In Wonderland library. It too is super charming. I did find that one, by searching the subject. The ones sold here are printed with a "frame" around the image and are quite expensive (hundreds of $$$). I love yours without the printed frame. Love your style!

      Delete
    5. Butterfly 8)(8 Bungalow 10/24/2015 8:58 PM

      Wow. You are a great internet shopper. :) Because neither were framed they were affordable. Actually the paper is so pretty and natural with an unevenness that I didn't want to frame them; I thought it contributed to their charming nature. Thank you xoxo , Su
