A beloved pastime, taking tea in the company of dear friends as you celebrate your shared affinity for heirloom treasures makes for an afternoon that’s well spent. Set a relaxed tone without sacrificing the formality of the occasion by blending beloved china patterns. Timeless floral and latticework motifs play well together for a dynamite duo. Rose-hued goblets and napkins secured with a ballet pink ribbon contribute to the sweet scheme.
When working with neutrals, maximize visual interest by looking for ways to incorporate various layers of texture. A lovely lace overlay tops off a beige tablecloth. Its delicate detailing complements the surrounding floral elements while a woven tray lends a natural touch that enhances the setting’s rich brown notes.
White garden roses and ranunculus serve as the base for this artful arrangement, accented with dried hydrangeas and seeded eucalyptus. For an eye-catching and unexpected addition, infuse your display with wooden berry balls.
Bud vases featuring white ranunculus blooms are scattered throughout the room—including the buffet, where a plate filled with French macarons hints at the delightful treat to come.
