Silver Sunday, Tea Pot for Spring


On a gorgeous Spring Day like Today
I decided to have my tea in the Sunroom.



I've been playing with flowers today
and a little silver teapot decided to
 hang around.



Creeping Phlox is one of my favorite early Spring flowers.
Pink, purple, lavender, pale blue and white...
like tiny snowflakes amidst a fluff of green,
they dot the landscape, and have a sweet aroma.





An old cemetery metal flower basket won their favor.




Hope you have a beautiful Silver Sunday.
Say Hello to all the other participants,
then go enjoy your day!

    Hi Debra ~ It's a lovely little spring scene you've created here!! I've always adored the creeping phlox and in the exact same shade you've featured here. Wish they bloomed so much longer.

    And silver teapots always take my breath away - this one is gorgeous! I have a couple, but I still want more LOL.

    Have a wonderful weekend...

    Hi Debra! Oh, you play well! This is so pretty! I love the old metal basket and the flowers. The little touch of the tea post looks like it's watering the flowers. The conservatory looks so awesome in the background and I adore, I mean I really adore those precious little lambs!
    Be a sweetie,

    Oh Debra ~ How creative you are. I just think your display is fabulous & fun. The phlox or May Pinks as they call them in my neck o' the woods are so pretty. I have a bunch covering most of the hill on the side of my house. If they find a place they like - they grow like crazy. Happy SS!

    So I'm at work, and for some reason, blogger only lets me see certain pics, and the rest have a little red X in the corner. This isn't just your blog, it's everybody's.

    So all I can see of this post is your purty little first and second picture.

    And based on those pics alone, I've concluded that you need to give me that thimgamajig made from old windows.

    You have my address.

    Tea in the sunroom sounds lovely with the creeping phlox to brighten the day. We are having clouds with chance of rain today. Hope that dust doesn't come along to hinder the process. Wishing you a most wonderful week ahead! Blessings, Tammy
