Pansy Tea


I have a few pansies to plant and I thought 
I’d have some fun with them before I do. 
 




I love the artwork of

 Cicily Mary Barker. 




Her sweet flower fairies 
and their accompanying 
poetry is simply Delightsome!

In honor of winter and spring’s garden happy faces, 




I set this tea for you and for me.




I found these sweet Pansy plates last year! They're such fun!




I 'planted' a few Pansies in a trough generally 
used for drywall mud. I saw this used on  
one of Sarah Richardson's shows a while back.


Moss stones and birds were 
added to enhance the garden theme.




I am using my sweet teapot with Wild Violets
 - the color was just right.








At each place setting I put a Pansy 
in one of my green bubble 
Depression Glass goblets.




Also, I used these butterfly napkin rings -
they add just the right touch!




Your visits always bring delight!
I hope this Pansy Tea brings a smile to your face
and brightens your day.


The Song of The Pansy Fairy
Pansy and Petunia,
Periwinkle, Pink -
How to choose the best of them,
Leaving out the rest of them,
That is hard, I think.


Poppy with its pepper-pots,
Polyanthus, Pea -
Though I wouldn't slight the rest,
Isn't Pansy quite the best,
Quite the best for P?




Black and brown and velvety,
Purple, yellow, red;
Loved by people big and small,
All who plant and dig at all
In a garden big.



Thank you so much for your visit,
