A handmade tea party favor you'll adore!






Now that you've seen the photos, don't you want to make one of these? My friend Kathy included this beautiful paper shoe in the gift package she sent me last week, and I just squealed with delight when I opened it. I love cute, and this is Cute with a capital "C"!

Amazingly enough, this pattern from Terri of Artful Affirmations is available for free right here, and my friend thoughtfully included the link and the pattern for me. You can even watch a video tutorial on how to make one. This shoe is just the right size for tucking in teabags, so guess what guests will be receiving at my next tea party? Fun!!!
