Please stop by and link up to these wonderful parties!!
I mentioned in the post that I did sharing my table that I was a Hostess at our church's Annual Harvest Tea.....
As a Hostess, You are responsible for:
Choosing a theme in which to decorate your table or tables....
You then invite guests to sit at your table who pay a $10.00 Fee
Choosing a theme in which to decorate your table or tables....
You then invite guests to sit at your table who pay a $10.00 Fee
The church provides hot water for Tea and Coffee and the Entertainment for the evening
The $10.00 Fee paid to the church goes to a Scholarship Fund to assist selected high school students of the parish in paying for his/her Higher Education after High School.
This is a pure profit event as the expense is shouldered mostly by each hostess, who can share the cost with others such as family members or ask their guests to bring food.
As a Hostess, you can go as extravagant as you want or as simple as you want when decorating your table.....
I took these photos the day before the Tea. Some things were added to the tables by the hostesses on the day of the Tea but I did not get to take more photos on the evening of the Tea.....
I absolutely loved this one........
Harvest Romance by Ida and her daughters Mary and Annette
I will let the photos do most of the talking......Yes, they rented chair covers and a matching tablecloth!!
I do want to mention that the white plates and silverware are plastic!!!
Stunning, huh??????
This was Ida's first year back after her husband died suddenly 2 years ago.....

There are also tables for the General Public that women of the Parish who do not want to host a table contribute decorations and food to......
Dorothy is the chairperson for the Tea and she does the majority of the decorations for these tables
Mums the Word
Beach Fun
God Bless America
So whether each hostess goes all out or does it very simply, the tables are all unique and interesting and the event is a wonderful event to attend!!!
I hope you enjoyed seeing the Theme tables at our church's Harvest Tea......
In my next posts, I will be sharing Joe and our oldest son, Joey's trip to Pittsburgh to see a Pittsburgh Penguins Hockey game......
