Last month we celebrated my Daughter Brielles 4th birthday.
Brielle decided she wanted a tea party- so a tea party it was !
Before the big day, I set out vintage shopping in Balmain to find some china and silverware.
I found this amazing set of Ridgway bone china cups.
I'm sure it was the Tiffany's blue that caught my eye! lol.
set of six for $4 - can you believe !
I also found some fabulous silverware and cute little tea pots .
All up I spent about $50 on the tea party accessories - Including the table paper balloons and ribbons
Gotta' love vintage !
Whilst in Balmain I ordered my daughters favourite treat.
Macaroons!
Half from Adriano and half from Donner Hay (which is a bit of a drive).
Now that might sound utterly pointless when you could just grab them all from one place and save yourself the hassle. - But there is a good reason
Adriano's macaroons are quite sophisticated flavours
-rose, champagne , pistachio , beetroot.
So they are great for the mature pallet ,
Donner Hay does super yummy traditional flavours like
- double choc, vanilla ,strawberry
Great for the kiddies.
Since I will be catering to both adults and children
A mix is the only way to go.
On the day of the party my sister turned up with a bag of Lindt macaroons too!
official macaroon overload
(which isn't such a bad thing!)
Cup cake tower
Candy bracelets in the tea cups
Mini cupcakes
Brielle on her big day.
She adored her tea party - and still plays with the tea pot set!
Brielle's White Dress- Bardot Junior
Hair pin - Diva
One of my favourite presents ,
A printed jumpsuit
Its so cute, and looks great with her olive skin.
she'll be wearing it all summer !
Thanks Auntie Victoria!
Brielle had a great day-
Lots of giggles from the kids.
Friends, Family, Food, Fun.
All the important things.
