Tea Parties

My Tea Party Tea setting  |  Source Who doesn't love tea parties? I have always been fascinated by them since I was a little girl whose grandmother taught her the love of a good cup of tea. Then of course watching movies that had tea parties like Titanic didn't help either. So when I got older, I bought my first English Rose tea set online for about 35.00. It doesn't seem like alot of money but at the age of 18, it was. I was so happy to get it in the mail in one piece and as beautiful as the the picture. I have had that set for 21 years.
