Christmas Tea Time


 I brewed a pot of chai spice tea today since I was feeling a little under the weather and realized it had been a while since I shared a tea table. 


After enjoying my second cup I took a few photos of my newest Mud Pie pieces.  The mugs are nice and big and hold a lot of tea! 



Last week I found Christmas Mud Pie ornaments at a darling children's store and was fortunate to find more Mud Pie items on sale at the hospital gift shop where I work.  I couldn't pass them up since I get an employee
 discount too!


The colors are so festive and I love the mix of colors and patterns...polka dots, stripes and checks...oh my!




This teapot is one of my favorites and I found "her" in a antique store last year.  She's not from Mud Pie but I thought she looked right at home with my Christmas mugs. 
I like to call her Mrs. Potts!


The cake stand is from Pier One and I love the fluted edge.  I've been admiring these cake stands for awhile and they come in different sizes and look great stacked.  Hope Santa heard me...I don't have the other sizes.   Cake stands  make perfect teapot stands 
as well.


Don't you love the loaf pans?  
Merry and FaLaLa! 


The snack/cheese plate is my favorite piece from the collection.  I will be using this on my buffet table for Christmas.  The black and white check adds a touch of whimsy.


Merry Christmas!
Enjoy a Christmas tea and set a pretty tray all for yourself or better yet to share with family or friends.

    Adorable pieces! I think I might have bought a few pieces of that last year at Sterling's in downtown Edmond. I love the simplicity and bright colors.

    These are adorable pieces. Can you guess which one is my favorite? I guess I need to look for Mud Pie. I've not heard of it. You've reminded me to stop in at the hospital gift shop. ;-)
