I am so glad you can join me for tea. I am serving strawberries and whipped cream along with the tea.
I am using my red transferware dishes I found in Florida last winter. The Windsor teapot is filled with Windsor Gardens English Breakfast tea.
The teacups and saucers are Vista by Mason.
The bowls and sweet creamer are by Taylor Smith.
My garden fairy is enjoying the day reading a book among the lilacs.
Thank you for coming to tea! Come back next week and we'll have tea by the purple lilacs at the little farm.
This week I will be joining the following parties: Tea Time Tuesday, Tea In The Garden, A Return To Loveliness, Tuesday Cuppa Tea, Teacup Tuesday, Garden Style Party, Share Your Cup Thursday, Simple and Sweet Fridays, Home Sweet Home, and Show and Tell Friday.

Your tea table is set to perfection and idyllic to have it near your white lilacs with their scent and butterflies hovering.
Your Red & white transferware is lovely. I just did that the other morning.. Im in need of a sugar bowl and creamer and two more tea cups and saucers to complete a set of four. I love your fairy reading a book she looks so wonderful.. wishing you a lovely new week with love Janice
What a gorgeous setting for your outdoor White Lilac tea party! I can only imagine how fragrant the smell must be. And you *know* I love your red transferware tablescape. Absolutely beautiful! I love everything on the table! Just wish I was close enough to stop by!
Hugs, Phyllis
Your tea party was wonderful, thanks for the invite. Love all the china and the fairy! Your lilac's are beautiful!
Mmm, strawberries and whipped cream sounds like a tasty treat. Your lilacs are beautiful and I can almost smell their sweet fragrance :) Thanks for sharing your lovely tea.
Hugs to you!
Hi sweet Nancy! I love your red transferware and remember it from Florida! I always enjoy visiting your pretty setting and spending virtual tea time with you. Your fairy is adorable.
p.s I planted morning glories last year and something ate mine, too! That's why, this year I thought I'd try the galvanized tub to see if that helps. It seems to be working.
What a lovely teascape. I think tea in the garden with the fairies and lilacs must be very close to perfect. Lovely red transferware and strawberries!!! Happy Tea Day!
Hi Nancy!
Your white lilacs are gorgeous and your transferware is lovely.

Hi Nancy,
your table looks so sweet. The red and white reminds me to strawberries with cream! Thank you for sharing this romantic setting.
Best greetings, Johanna
An inviting red and white tea table, right down to the strawberries and cream. The white lilacs make a pretty backdrop and I'll bet the whole area smelled nice.

Hi Nancy,
Ooh, I can just imagine how dreamy it is sitting there by the lilacs. I love your tea table set with red transferware and white lilacs! I would love to have white lilacs but the purple are lovely too. That is a darling angel. I'm looking forward to strawberry season here on the Island too. A lovely tea, thank you! Hope you have a beautiful week.
Blessings,
Sandi
Oh lovely! We have lavender around our home, not white. They are so perfect with your red and white transferware! Your photos are gorgeous and so evocative of the perfect, relaxing garden tea!

What a lovely setting for outdoor tea! I would have to wear my long white lacey dress and bonnet and bring along my croquet set for some sedate fun afterwards!
Hi Nancy,
This is a lovely spot to set the table for a garden tea!
The white lilacs are quite a view, I only have purple ones which are now already flowerless.
And your red transferware set looks perfect in this setting!
Hugs
I have such a weakness for red transferware that your pictures made my day! I need to find teacups like yours.
Hi Nancy,
I just love your white lilacs and transferware. I have just started to collect Mason's Vista too. Your garden setting is just beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Can't wait for Tea with the Mauve Lilacs.
Take care,
Karen
What a lovely WHITE LILAC TEA in your garden with these beautiful dishes!!! Fabulous table setting!
Oh such a beautiful setting for springtime tea! Your lilacs are glorious looking. My lilac bush did not bloom at all this year : (
But your bush is heavenly! It must smell divine there. Your tea set is beautiful. And your strawberry treat is so tasty looking. Fresh fruit in spring is such a treat.
Hugs,
Terri

SO lovely, Nancy! Isn't 'white lilacs' an oxymoron? haha~ I've never seen Lilacs growing- gorgeous photos. Love the transferware and setting. Happy Summertime,

I love the idea of a white lilac tea! So perfect with your red transfer ware!
Dear Nancy,
I love your transferware and the white lilacs-so different and so lovely. What a treat for the eyes (and for you the nose).

Nancy, absolutely gorgeous! I had a white lilac at my previous home. It was a start from one of my dear sisters. Seeing yours makes me realize I must plant one here. My lilacs are through blooming, but my roses are lovely right now. Thanks for sharing with SYC.
hugs,
Jann
It is strawberry time! Don't you love it? Such a beautiful post today. Your tea set is stunning and so perfect for your strawberries. I love it all and can just feel the sunshine.
I featured your last week's tea on Tea In The Garden today!
