A Costume Tea Party, of the Halloween Variety

I would like to personally invite you on an adventure with me…

Up the attic stairs and into a wonderland of costumes.

Finding just the right ruffles and lace gloves to prepare for a Hallowen fete.

A tea party if you will, of the costumed variety.

Witches, warlocks, fairies, cats, dragonflies…

What ever your mystery may be, join together to clink tea cups with me, won’t you?

All you have to do is say yes, and be here when the clock strikes midnight taking us into the 24th of October.

I am knee deep in the magical old trunk, searching for the perfect frock.

Sparkles, and lace and hats and old brooches, oh my!

Hugest pearls, sparkly heels and a mask do delight!

What is your mystery costume of choice?

A billowing dress to twirl in under the moonlight?

Bangles up to your elbows?

A tutu, a jack-o-lantern a wand and a dream.

What more could you need really?

Oh I know, a tea cup with your favorite mystical punch.

I mean tea 🙂

But wait…

The hour is closing near…

The light is changing, golden hour signifies the sun setting and the perfect hour for…

Magic and mischief of epic proportions.

Signifying evening time, when all the fairies take flight.

And so, yes it is true, a Halloween party for you will be happening this Saturday.

A virtual tea party of course, hosted right here on my blog.

If you have participated in past years then you know the hauntingly magical steps to take.

To view the Halloween tea party simply show up here on the 24th and I will share my own tea party through photos and videos.

It is open to everyone.

If you would like to have your own blog tea party at the same time (which you would share on your blog & link back to me), simply post a link to your party in the comment section of my party blog post on Saturday and I will add your link within the body of my post.

Then the party will be there to enjoy until the 31st (well forever really).

That’s all.

Either be a guest who wanders through clinking tea cups virtually or host your own blog party and post your link on Saturday and let your friends know by linking to me.

Easy as pumpkin pie with cardamom icing.

I’d love to know if you plan to join in.

I simply can not wait my dear fanciful friendlings <3 <3 <3

 

I know it’s quite short notice, but the month just blew by so quickly.

And sometimes, the best things are done at the spur of the moment <3

 

See you on Saturday, with a Halloween extravaganza <3 <3 <3

We will party all Saturday evening and beyond.

 

Lots of love,

 

Vanessa

 

ps: later this week I will post the most outrageous giveaway on my Instagram account, be sure to check in <3

  10. Dearest Vanessa, I only discovered your Halloween party invitation two days ago and I just didn’t have enough time to put it together. I still miss your blog parties and all the fun we used to have. I’d love to do something again with you and hope you will have another party soon. I hope people have signed up for this party… Though I am here on Saturday and I’m not seeing anything… Times of changed a bit since we used to do those Blog parties. I wonder if there’s a way to do something on Instagram. It seems to be where everybody is. Please count me in in the future, if I have enough notice I will happily create an over-the-top festive do. Wishing you so much joy and happiness

  11. What Fun, this is very last minute, but here goes, hope you will visit
