Tablescape Thursday - Yellow Rose Tea Party

This week my tablescape is for a Yellow Rose Tea Party.

Thanks to Susan at Between Naps on the Porch for hosting Thursday Tablescapes, go here for lots more beautiful and creative tablescapes.

Above is this year's yellow rose tea party tablescape. Below is a yellow rose tea party I hosted several years ago. Here I'm with my co-host, Gloria at the yellow rose tea party for our tea party club. I've forgotten the year we had this one.

I have a collection of tea cups with yellow roses on them, I used many of the yellow rose tea cups. At that tea party I used a white lace table cloth over yellow. The centerpiece was a tea pot filled with yellow roses. I also used some of my yellow depression glass as serving dishes.

Favors were tussie-mussies made from white doilies filled with a tea time poem, and a small yellow rose. Napkins were tied with vintage yellow rose hankies.

Okay, now on to my new yellow rose tea party tablescape:

To change the yellow rose tea party theme this time I'm using the spring green tablecloth, yellow plates, topped with flower shaped green salad plates. I recently found these green plates at Marshall's for only $2.00 each! I love the way they match the tablecloth!

The centerpiece is a small cloche atop a crystal cake stand.

A tiny figurine holding a yellow rose is surrounded by silk yellow roses.

The little figurine is holding something else, but I glued the yellow bow and rose to her hand.

Each place setting has a different yellow rose tea cup from my collection. Each plate has a single yellow rose tied with a ribbon.


The napkins are yellow covered with a vintage yellow rose hankie, from my collection of yellow rose hankies!

The napkin rings are ceramic with yellow roses painted on them.

My yellow rose tea pot is also displayed. My husband bought this tea pot for me at an antique store, we had been looking for one for a long time and I was excited to finally find one!

Following are the different place settings with different tea cups and different vintage napkins.

Can you choose a favorite tea cup, and a favorite hankie?

Serving dishes are various yellow rose plates and bowls.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my new yellow rose tea party tablescape! Choose your favorite tea cup, sit down, and join us!

Have a happy day!
God Bless.
