Christmas Joys!

Greetings to you all! I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas! As some of you may know, just before Christmas I took a little trip and stayed with a friend. I had such a lovely time and came back with three new outfits! (I shall post some pictures of those soon!) Thank you so much Miss Q.!
For now, I'll show you some pictures of our Christmas Tea!

We started with Cranberry Cordial....
And we had delicious Gingerbread cookies sprinkled with powdered sugar...

The centerpiece...

Me (Emaline) and My two cousins with our freshly cut Christmas tree in the background...

A sneak peek at one of my new dresses!
A lovely white tea set belonging to my cousin Olive...

The centerpiece up close - made of glittered berries and set on a sea shell with evergreens and spices!
After the cordial we had Vanilla Peach Apricot Tea. Mmm...
So cozy!
(below) We also had Cinnamon Brittle! Mmm...




(shh... the secret to filling the itty-bitty tea cups! Dip a straw into the tea and put your finger over the top so it stays in. Then place straw over tea cup and move your finger so the tea pours into it! Note: How we created the tiny sprinkling of powdered sugar on the cookies...
Just place a little bit of powdered sugar in a mesh tea ball and tap with your finger to make it fall. It works very well!)
I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!
Please leave a comment (or if you are a member you may do a post!) and tell us how you (or your dolls rather,) spent Christmas!!

...And God bless us all, Everyone!
Love,
Miss Emaline
