well I turn 53 yo NOT 87!!! ......(yep my gorgeous dad & I share the same birthday)..
But my mum has her birthday on 2nd November & is turning 88 yo...
I gave her a lovely English afternoon tea party for her 80th birthday and I am planning a similar type event for her upcoming 88th...~~~~
I cooked for days & days with lots of petit fours...lamingtons..sponge cakes...etc etc..
It was a lovely afternoon but sadly a few of mum's good friends have since passed away...
SOO I want to make this an extra LOVELY birthday for my mum (who i must say looks about 60 yo!!)..
anyway...just starting to look at some ideas...
lavender/rosemary/lace....
vintage plates...roses etc...
some inspirational pages from magazines ....
just a little snippet of what i have been doing this BEAUTIFUL SPRING DAY in Melbourne...!!~~~~~
have a lovely week..
