I'm a coffee lover but at least once a year I enjoy drinking tea, this is when n a couple of friends and I get together a week before Easter to celebrate it and have a tea party.
My husband said the table decor looked like a scene from Alice in Wonderland, which I did not have in mind, I just wanted to create a feminine, soft atmosphere. I like Easter decor, soft pastel colors and the light and flowers of early Spring.
We had fruits, strawberries, raspberries and grapes, which I forgot to photograph. Avocado and cream cheese canapés, mini cupcakes, merengues, and chocolate eggs, of course, after all it was an Easter celebration. It was a sweet afternoon, if you know what I mean.
A celebration with friends without some diy? That's not possible. A simple condensed milk can and a piece of vellum paper held by a piece of washi tape and right there you have a unique candy dish.
For the rabbit-face napkin rings cut a toilet paper roll, paint it inside to give it a nice finishing, cover the cut pieces with scrap paper (another option is to use fabric), draw & cut some rabbit-shaped ears, and cut faces with a round paper puncher. Add ribbons and ric-racs to embellish them and small pompoms for a cute nose.
Have a good week.
