My Life in a Tiffany Bleu House

I painted Marie's Maison Tiffany Bleu as a reminder that this is the best jewelry box I ever received!

Sip and Shop

There's nothing more fun than spending time with friends and catching up. How about joining moi in my new garden getaway? Come visit with me for a sipping tea party after a long day of shopping, mes amis!









































Finally, when fate hands us lemons, why let's make some lemonade, lemon pie, lemon cake, or better yet, give them away! My tree is producing so much lemons, I can't keep up!

What a fabulous spot for tea in your garden. The conservatory looks fantastic! Are you out there all the time? It's just precious.

Hello Marie, I am so glad you could join us today for tea! Your new garden getaway is amazing! What a treat it would be to sit inside and have tea! All your photos show such lovely vignettes, and everything looks so pretty.

The tea cups are gorgeous. It is hard to find aqua colors in china. I featured a French one a few weeks ago, and it was the first one I have found. I am off to England for July tomorrow and am going to keep an eye out for another one!

Hope you had a fabulous 4th.
Hugs,
Terri

The crisp white with nostalgic aqua so summery. Love the teacups.

Gail said...

RE extra lemons, can you juice them, put juice into ice trays, and when cubes are frozen, put cubes into freezer bag and you'll have lemon ice cubes for tea all year long.
