It is all about A May Day Tea...

The month of May is a perfect time to celebrate
and I could not think of a better way
than to have a spot of tea.
And while we are at it,

let’s make it a pink party.
Perfect for May Day,
Mother’s Day, Birthdays or just because
I feel like a Tea day….




Make your guest feel special by wrapping
each invitation in a pretty paper doily.
Idea from Martha Stewart .



A Pink Buds Fashionista Bracelet would be
a lovely party favor
Or party craft…

It is all about recycling beautifully…

Vintage music sheets, a few old books, a bit of lace
and a few old frames can be turned
into beautiful accessories for your home.

a Happy Birthday,
or add a quote and send to someone
to say I am thinking of you.....

Old music sheets and a few coffee
filters become stunning roses to display
in your home..
