It was time to do something new with the tea trolley décor, so for July (and maybe the rest of summer), I've pulled out Old Glory and some blue-and-white tea wares!
The Bicentennial plate was a thrift store find during a trip to Wisconsin to see family a few years ago.
This tea came from my friend Nancy's shop, the Carriage House in Senoia, and I told you about the Tetley tea tin last week.
I have just a few blue-and-white tea wares, but they all seem to play well together.
And it seemed appropriate to include a plate commemorating the Boston Tea Party.
A few more things may get added, but here's what I have so far. On Thursday, Lord willing, I'll be one of 200+ folks from my church who have volunteered to hand out water bottles along the July Fourth parade route downtown, then I'm going hiking and swimming with a friend. How will you be celebrating?
Your tea trolley looks wonderful and your holiday plans sound like fun - although the swim sounds like the best part! I plan to go to a cookout at a friend’s home, an annual party that is always fun.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty Angela. Enjoy your 4th of July! DonnaZ
ReplyDeleteWho can believe that July is here? This looks adorable. Love the transferware!
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful patriotic tea trolley! I really like the crocheted dresser scarf which ties it all together. I usually spend the 4th of July trying to keep cool! I can hear the fireworks from the National Mall even inside my apartment, and that's as close as I want to get to them. In the morning I'll do my usual bird walk at the nearby Wshington National Cathedral 's woods and garden. I can see the Capitol Building and the Washington Monument from there.
ReplyDeleteI love your tea trolley and all the ways you decorate it for the various seasons. I really enjoy following your blog and I learn much from all your posts. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteThe tea trolly looks great! Enjoy your 4th of July. I'll be eating hamburgers with family.
ReplyDeleteIt all looks so patriotic and pretty. Enjoy! Other than a barbecue with family I haven't though much about decorating.
