Welcome !
I love the beach, but living in the Midwest, we are blessed to visit once a year, if that! For the past two years we have had the privilege of spending a treasured week with my extended family on Top Sail Island, N.C..
Come and enjoy a relaxing Beach Tea with me.
The beautiful glass cake stand, glasses, salad plates and bowls are from a set that were gifted to me when my Grandma moved from her home to live full time with my Mom.
I find them so delicate and feminine.
The glass "candle holders" are really glass coasters, also a hand-me-down from Grandma.
My china came from my Aunt. It is marked with a M Japan. The pattern is 3541 Georgiana.
My tea spoons are very precious gifts from my mom. Whenever she travels out of the country she will bring back beautiful tea spoons from her trips as gifts for my sister and me. Each spoon is unique in style. This collection has grown over the years and we currently enjoy them each morning as we stir our creamer into our coffee!
The shells are from our trips to North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida.
Thank you for visiting with me today!

Very pretty! I'm ready for fall but will miss the summer! Your beach table is a wonderful reminder of fun summer days on the beach.

I like all things beachy...and I really like your table. I know it has special meaning to you. The glassware is so pretty. I like the pattern. Scattering shells about is really the perfect touch. Thank you for sharing.

I have those same glass coasters & still use them!! I like how you used your cake plate to raise your candle holder. I always forget about making different levels...thanks for the reminder.
Dee Dee--I needed a little beach reminder today--wish I were back there! I love the hurricane on top of the cake plate. It makes a lovely centerpiece! You are very fortunate to get such treasures from your grandmother!
The center piece is wonderful... I love it ...
I am having a give a-way... Would love for you to stop over...

Oh what wonderful family treasures to remind you of a treasured time at the beach. This is beautiful.
Your dishes are so lovely with the little pink roses. I love that you used the seashells as a centerpiece. This is such a sentimental table setting.
So glad to be able to see your Tablescape Thursday. Such a treat to see all the ideas.
Thx for sharing! The centerpiece is beautiful.
Hope you'll come by my Kansas Home for a spot of tea...blessings to you,
