Hey friends! Today I’m joining a bunch of my talented blogger friends to bring you the I’ts a Spring Tea Party Blog Hop hosted by Amber at Follow The Yellow Brick Home!
If you’re coming from Botanic Bleu, isn’t Judith’s French country style gorgeous?
I decided to keep things simple for this tea party. It’s seems like we’re all so busy this time of year so I wanted to share something that is really easy to put together.
This balcony is our little outdoor retreat. It’s on the second floor between the master bedroom and bathroom. I love to come out here and enjoy my coffee in the morning when the weather permits. It didn’t take much at all to spruce it up to create a floral themed tea party.
The balcony looks over our backyard where we’re lucky to have some mature trees that attract many different kinds of birds. It’s always relaxing to sit and listen to the birds chatter.
The table, chairs and rug were already out on the balcony, so all I really did was add potted flowers, pillows and a few vintage finds.
Crochet doilies have been my thing lately! I paired them with some crochet edged napkins to give it that tea party look.
I used one of my chicken glass covered bowls to hold some butter cookies to go along with the tea. You know they all got eaten as soon as I was finished taking pictures. I bought the tea set in Berlin, Germany in the late 80’s.
That’s it for my spring tea on the balcony! Next up is Celebrate and Decorate.

Happy hopping!
Such a pretty scene Michelle! I adore your pretty wicker patio set and love the doilies.
What a lovely spot for tea or coffee. Your tea set is gorgeous. The hen on a nest is adorable.
Michelle you set such a pretty setting for two. I love sitting on our porch sharing a cup of our favorite drink and socializing. Love your tea dishes. Have a great Mother’s Day.
How fun to have your own private balcony off the master bedroom! It’s lovely. My favorite part is the large crocheted doilies on the table. Such a cute vintage looking idea!
I love your wicker set! What a lovely place to enjoy tea! i spy a blue glass hen on nest on the table – love it!!
Hi Michelle, your balcony is the perfect spot for a relaxing cup of tea. The china teaset is beautiful, and I’m a huge fan of white wicker for a porch. Beautiful setting with the vintage goodies!
Michelle,
Ahhh… white wicker on a second-story balcony is what Southern novels are filled with. I would love sitting on your secluded balcony in my nightgown in the mornings before the day really begins. Having a cup of tea and gazing out across the yard….
Judith
Such a comfy little spot to enjoy a spot of tea, be it hot or iced as summer heat arrives! All of your little pots of flowers and plants make this a lovely setting.
Michelle, you have the perfect porch for relaxing and enjoying a cup of tea. This is the way life should be savored in the beautiful setting you created.
So lovely, Michelle. I love your lace trimmed napkins! Happy to be joining you for the tea party hop this week. Blessings, Cecilia @My Thrift Store Addiction
What a pretty spot to sit and relax! I love your tea set and those vibrant flowers!

Michelle, I can just imagine how relaxing sitting on your balcony with a cup of tea (or in our neck of the woods, a glass of sweet iced tea) would be. Listening to the birds, reading a good book and sipping tea would be heaven. I love your pretty china and the blue hen is darling. I love the lace trim on your napkins. What a lovely spot you have created.
What a lovely spot you have to enjoy a cup of tea! I love your tea set and especially love your covered chicken dish. My grandmother had one of those and I’ve always wanted one of my own.
Oh wow, what a perfect idea for a tea party on the balcony. Love it.
This is the perfect place to relax before a busy day, Michelle! I bet it’s so nice out there in the mornings while the birds are singing. I love your wicker furniture and your floral tea set too. It’s beautiful! Hugs, CoCo
Ok you and Katie have me on the hunt for wicker! I have had wicker pieces over the years but ended up selling them in my antiques booths. Your little balcony tea party is precious with the vintage doilies that gorgeous tea set. How awesome that you purchased it on a trip to Germany!
All of your flowers look so pretty!
Thanks so much for joining the hop! Enjoy the birds, butterflies, and tea time in your pretty space!
Your flowers coordinate so beautifully with your tea set, Michelle! What a beautiful spot to enjoy watching and hearing the birds!
What a lovely tea service! It’s perfect with your spring flowers. 🙂
