Inspiration for a Mad Tea Party

As I finalize the details of my Mad Tea Party and Alice in Wonderland viewing party for this weekend I thought I would share my bits of inspiration that have help shape the event.

From the top: These are a little sneak peek into the graphics that were used on some of the paper delights. This absolutely stunning Alice in Wonderland shoot via Wedding Chicks is spot on. I adore the vintage china, drink me tags, and vintage books. Very much the vibe I will be going for this weekend. The photography was done by Jessica Frey Photography, stunning!

How perfect are those white rabbit ears via etsy! These vintage keys spark the perfect feel. I am totally smitten with this cloche Alice Mushroom necklace via etsy. Brilliant! And of course this new Wiley Valentine letterpress card inspired many of the graphics used for the party. Love the UnBirthday!!

I am completely obsessed with this Alice in Wonderland inspired Tea Party box from the Bake Lab. Mushroom meringues, and eat me cookies and all! So absolutely perfect!! And don’t forget the mix and match vintage tea cups. Stay tuned next week for a look into my Alice in Wonderland Tea Party. Happy Wonderlanding friends!

Eighteen years ago, just before my son was born, my sister hosted a “Mad Tea Party Baby Shower”, where she turned her living room into a fabric draped fantasy, replete with 25 whimsical hats for us all to wear. Alice and the Queen of Hearts never go out of style…..and keep serving up lovely memories Thank you for this extraordinary vision!
