I accepted this lovely The idea is that, on the weekend of 20th-21st June, all the 'guests' who've accepted the invitation do a post on their blog, with lots of lovely garden party images.
Happy Birthday Floss!!
Right what to wear?
This pretty dress i think.
And some gorgeous Joules pumps (abit much??. No, i like colour!)
Now, my inspiration for my garden party comes from my sons drawing.
How to get there??
Cross the fields. Be sure to take a carrot or some mints with you to feed the horses on the way.
Now enter through the gate.
Please, take a seat and make yourselves at home.
Let me poor you a cup of tea.
Please take a while to smell the roses.
Scones anyone?
Or maybe i can interest you in a cake?
Theres plenty of fresh strawberries that i picked this morning. Mmmmm and cream and sugar. Or maybe you'd prefer chocolate?
Theres plenty to do today:Swing through the trees,
Fly a kite,
Dance,
Or just sit, relax and chat with good friends.
Thank you for joining Floss and i.

What a wonderful party! Yours is the first post I've read, and you've set us all off to such a very good start! Thanks and enjoy your weekend - hope the weather is lovely in your own garden...
Lovely party :)
Yoohoo, how lovely to meet another one of Floss's friends. Good to see you are having a great time. Oh, and I wouldn't say no to your offer of a bit of cake. We can always work off the calories afterwards, running around with the kites.

Nice to "meet" you at Floss' Garden Party.
You'll have to teach me how to dance and fly the kite. Oh, I have 2 left feet, and I've never flown a kite before!
Lovely post - love the walking across the field and feeding the horses on the way. I've got to do my party post today! What fun. x
Apologies I couldn't come ;) Soooooo tired.
Ohooo thanks for the pretty awards, I shall get them on on my next post.
Now I NEED those delightful Joules pumps :)

Hi there! Your garden party was just lovely. I'm so glad you decided to join my WBC party as well. I think it will be lots of fun and very inspirational!

At last I have (just this moment!) started catching up on blogs again and have come to yours first - and once again something in your wardrobe has caught my eye!! I want your wardrobe!! WHERE is that pretty dress from? I love it!
It reminds me of a brand of children's clothes I used to stock in the shop called Eternal Creation - beautiful fairtrade things. It was mainly childrenswear but they did a few ladies dresses in the prettiest prints and softest cotton. Lovely.
Loved the garden party thing!!
Lots of love
Charlotte
