Tea for Tuesday

Each Tuesday I'll be featuring a vignette of tea-related items.  Most of them will have one of my teapots; they all have at least one thing you could use at a tea party.

I love my Art Deco pitcher.  The fans to the right and left are of an unknown (to me) functionality.  They have a hole in the top, like they might be planters.  They look like bookends, but are too lightweight.  At a tea party, you could safely use them as vases or someplace to hold the silverware.

This is the apron that you would wear when serving that pitcher.  I made it with three layers:

1. The bottom layer is a tea towel of plum and green.  I edged it with pastel peach and white lace.  
2. The second layer is a lavender handkerchief.  
3. The third layer consists of three - gosh, I don't know if they are more hankies or if they're napkins.  

The green and lavender layers are from Wendy Richardson. 

I decided they're napkins.
