Red, White and Blue Toile Tea Party

Toile Tea Party in red, white and blue for the 4th of July!

Just purchased the red toile chargers at a sale last week.

Blue toile plates include two Spode, Johnson Bros. Old Britain Castles and Liberty Blue, and Liberty Blue mugs (I was fortunate to inherit a complete set of Liberty Blue dishes ~ they are beautiful colonial toile ~ perfect picks for July 4th),

an estate-sale-find Spode red sugar bowl, and Johnson Bros. red teapot,










toile napkins and pretty flowers from the garden. The Sweet William reminds me of fireworks,


and a vintage white tablecloth with lace border of teacups from a relative.

Enjoy your 4th!
God bless America!

    The color scheme is so pretty. TT is dangerous. It makes me want so many new things, like some beautiful toile dishes.
