Fresh Flowers for Your Tea Table




It's so wonderful that spring is here and with it the arrival of many beautiful spring flowers.  Though there are many lovely artificial flowers there is nothing like fresh flowers for your tea table.  It can be a simple bloom in a decorative vase or a more elaborate bouquet.  It is a good idea to keep the flowers low and unobtrusive.  They should complement the table.  If a tall centerpiece is used,  place it to the side of your table so that your guests will be able to see each other.  I adore Lilacs which are so prevalent right now.  They are an extremely fragrant flower so if you decide to use them,  you should know that your guests enjoy them too.

What flowers do you like to use for your teatime celebrations?  Sipping Union Blue Lady...
