ONE YEAR BLOG-ANNIVERSARY, GIVEAWAY & STRAWBERRY TEA


 Strawberries and teapots are a few of my favorite things.  I'm a new fan of Laurie's Favorite Things Saturday and I'm also linking to Sunday Favorties at Chari's Happy to Desgin, Marty's Tabletop Tuedays, Lady Katherine's Tea Time Tuesday,  Rhondi's Tea Party Tuesdays,  Susan's BTNOP Tablescapes Thursday and Cindy's Romantic Home Show and Tell Friday!   

So many social engagements...so little time.  LOL!  Join in all the parties for lots of  fun and great ideas.




I'm celebrating my first
 year of blogging and set a special strawberry table to share with my bestfriend. 



She gave me this adorable teapot ...she knows me so well and chose this "girly" pink rose covered teapot for me.  Thanks Valerie!!!  I served her spiced tea, a fresh vegatable and bow -tie pasta salad topped off  with fresh strawberries. 




I thought this sweet teapot went well with the strawberry colors and my favorite little pink petaled cake stand.



I found these pink plates on clearance and loved the soft pink color and the border.  They look good layered on the off white Target dinner plates I 've had for years. 


I found these strawberry plates at Pier One...hard to resist, since I had purchased an April Cornell strawberry tablecloth on my trip to Texas.  I thought they would look perfect for the table!  
  

I found these strawberry pewter bowls at Goodwill for a steal several months ago...4 for $3.00.  So cute to serve fresh berries in. 


For an alternate look I switched out the pink plates for the green cabbage and layered the Pier One plates on top...I like this look too!



Candles and silk flowers add to the table for two. 


I just used red napkins with a simple white porcelain napkin ring...you can add flowers too for a more "girly" look.


I went to a friend's estate sale and found these beautiful teacups from Johnson Brothers..the pattern is Enchanted Garden...I love this pattern and I'm looking for more pieces if the price is right.  


Finally, I added my family's favorite strawberry jam from Swanton Berry Farm in California. It's the best! We love our visits and when we run out of jam..it's time to go back to the farm! 










Have a wonderful week!


 I hope you will enter my giveaway...see details below.




The past year has  flown by since my first post last spring!  I really didn't  know what I was doing.. but I was having fun!

  45. Hi Sonia...

    So happy to see you join in with the fun of Sunday Favorites this week, Darlin'!!! And it's a real pleasure to see this gorgeous strawberry tablescape once again! I just receieved an email from my sister who lives in the hill country of Texas. She said that she just got back from the anual "Strawberry Festival" that they hold in Poteet, Tx. every year! I was sooo envious! Hehe! When I lived down there, she always shared a few flats of strawberries with me...mmmm!!!

    I hope that you're having a super Sunday, sweet girl!!! I have been in and out all day...cleaning up our patio area from the winter's mess! Hopefully I will be able to sit out there with my morning coffee soon! I do believe that Spring has finally made its appearance in Colorado! Hehe!

    Love ya,
