It is all about A May Day Tea...




The month of May is a perfect time to celebrate
and I could not think of a better way
than to have a spot of tea.
And while we are at it,

let’s make it a pink party.
Perfect for May Day,
Mother’s Day, Birthdays or just because
I feel like a Tea day….




Make your guest feel special by wrapping
each invitation in a pretty paper doily.
Idea from Martha Stewart .



A Pink Buds Fashionista Bracelet would be
a lovely party favor
Or party craft…

Crepe Paper streamer tutorial

A simple idea
for a pretty party look.



Pre-weaved paper streamers….

step 1:


Take two rolls of crepe paper steamers

in your party colors and
tape the two ends together
like in picture above.
I use two sided tape,
you can also glue.

step two:


Take the roll on your left side (blue)
and cross over
to the right over the
yellow steamer .

step 3:

Take the yellow and cross over the blue
going from down to up...



Cross blue from right side to left,
next take yellow
from top bring down over blue.
Keep weaving back and forth
and up and down
until you have either the whole roll done
or needed length .

To keep bundles together I wrap
a stripe of paper around the
accordion folded crepe and tape.


I do this while I watch TV and store
in shoeboxes.
Crepe streamers go up faster and gives
your party a professional look.
