I wish that someone had told me about this book before I planned out my daughter’s last birthday party! I only found out about this book today, and thought it best that I write a post about it asap, so that I can save anyone else out there who needs to plan a tea party for a little girl a lot of time and trouble.
The book is called Come to Tea: Fun Tea Party Themes
, Recipes, Crafts, Games, Etiquette and More by Stephanie Dunnewind, Dan Potash (designer), and Capucine Mazille (Illustrator).
As I, unfortunately, haven’t had the opportunity to read the book myself, here is the book description from Amazon.com.
Drink from delicate cups, eat dainty finger foods, dress up in your finery, and be as polite as you can be: it’s time to come to tea. With the help of this oh-so charmingly illustrated guide, you can throw a delightful tea party for birthdays, holidays, or just to have fun with friends. You can even choose a theme to make it extra-special. Start by designing your own invitations and decorations. Then, follow the recipes for making a great cup of tea, simple cucumber and other creative sandwiches, shortbread bars, and more tasty treats. What kind of party are we going to have? A Mad Hatter Tea, Teddy Bear Picnic, Garden Party, Fairy Tea, or one just with your dolls or your mom? Plus: crafts, games, boxed hostess tips, and delicious “tea party†quotes from favorite books, all shown in pictures that capture the timeless pleasures of this favorite little-girl event. A quintessential gift from grandmother to granddaughter.
