this Mad Hatter tea party scheme is fantastic! where did the bunny pitcher come from please?
Mary, you continue to surprise me. Amazing, delightful and just a bit quirky. Perfect
Mary this is fabulous! ❤
Thanks Pattie, from HomeGoods several years ago :)
How cute! Everything is so adorable. I love it.
Love the Mackenzie Childs tea pot wreath with all the playing cards, butterflies and ribbons. Great combination for your tea party.
Did someone say Tea Party? Well yes, I’ll be there! Love it! In times of so much disturbance all a round us, this is perfect! See you Saturday!🤗🌴😎
Incredibly charming!
Oh my goodness gracious! Your wreath is so adorable! I love everything about it! The butterflies, the teapot with the ribbon pouring out…WOW!
Amazing cuteness! So creative!
Oh my goodness Mary, your magical teapot wreath is adorable. I love the ribbon pouring from the spout and all the decor. Even your topiary is festively dressed for the occasion!
Your imagination is endless. Love❤️
Oh what fun you must have seeing your delightful creations come together! Your wreath is wonderful.
My favorite floral designs to create are wreaths. This is adorable!!
Mary, I’m all a-flutter anticipating the delights and beauty of your delightful tea party! I see that the clock is signaling time for tea which is fine with me as I always have a cup in hand. Will we go past your amazing wreath or will we take our tea lakeside? I wonder!! :) It looks like it will be the most wonderful dream! I can’t wait and I won’t be late!! Linda
Can you tell me the size of your wreath?
It’s 21 inches. It’s preserved boxwood so it’s meant for indoor use and it’s now hanging inside. :)
Thank you.
Mary, so much fun and creativity! I will be there Saturday! Pam @ Everyday Living
Creative perfection! Just lovely, all components are so “Mad Hatter”….
Mary, I can’t wait! I’m dreaming of what white rabbits might await and all the fun of the table you will set for tea. I’m kicking myself that I didn’t get a table done. I even have some new white rabbits of my own that have been waiting in the wings to debut at a Mad Tea. I wonder if you might have them too. Alas I was too late getting organized, and now I have to be away. Of course you know that the tea pot is a favorite for me and the perfect centerpiece for your wreath. I don’t have any of the butterfly pieces, but I need to add some. I will be at your party without question, but sadly will be late. Save me a cup of tea please, and a goodie or two. I know you’ll have planned a fabulous party!
Oh my gosh Mary, your magical teapot wreath is FANTASTICALLY ORIGINAL!! The picot ribbon representing the flowing water/tea was positively brilliant. I soooo wish I’d seen this before my quilt guild’s tea party picnic…I would have made one for the door!! next time, for sure!
You are always such a great inspiration, Hon…thanks!!
Absolutely fantastic!
Love every little detail. As usual, Mary, you outdid yourself.
Mary, what a great idea, having the ribbon coming out of the spout – so clever of you! Of course, I love the Butterfly Garden pattern (and took advantage of that sale too!). Your tea party theme played out in a big way!
Beautiful, clever, creative, colorful…just plain love it!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
MacKenzie-Childs Sky Butterfly Teapot — swoooon!!!!!!!!!!! And on sale?!!!! Lucky you!
LOVE IT!
That is one awesome wreath and the topiary on the porch is not too shabby either. How did you secure the tea pot to the wreath ? Always impressed by the quality of the photos.
Thanks Myrna! The teapot is tied on the wreath with the ribbon. It’s an enamel teapot and not as heavy as a porcelain one, is but I think you could secure any teapot that way. :)
Your wreath really turned out cute Mary-have fun with the party:@)
This wreath is way too cute!!!!…Probably one of the most creative wreaths I have ever seen!…I love how you put that white sheer ribbon through the spout to mimic a pour….genius!…Pinned away!!!
Scream! This is officially the cutest thing I’ve ever seen Mary!!! OMG, the McK-Chds teapot pouring out from the center is pure genius!! and the black and white ribbon tying all the Alice elements together, Scream again!!! The clock and the candelabra, adorable! I can’t wait for Sat. I know it’s going to be crazy fun!!

Oh, so cute to use the Alice cards! I bought those after seeing them on your blog and my niece loves to play go fish with them! LOL Thanks for sharing at Home Sweet Home!
PERFECTION!☕☕
Oh, my! What a fun, fantastical wreath and table! Mary, your ideas are always so inspiring! Love all the details!
Brilliant as usual!!!!! Your wreath and topiary are stunning, fun, whimsical and as always, make my day and bring an “aaahhhhhh” to my heart. I actually laughed and thought..”of course she did”, when I saw the ( ribbon) tea puring out the spout:). Thank you for always sharing your creativity and your inspirations with all of us!!!!
Love it, love it, love it. You have given me such inspiration for the Tea Party I am planning for September. I have the perfect teapot to tie to my front door wreath. Thanks so much for your imaginative ideas.
Such an original wreath!! You are so creative!!! I have quite a few Mackenzie Childs pieces, may have to add the butterfly teapot to my collection!!! Such a great reason to have a tea party too!!! Thanks again for making me smile and always providing your readers with such “original” inspiration!!!!
Over- the- top Mary! Too cute! Love it all, especially the ribbon-pouring spout! See you Saturday- ha – later this a.m.!
Oh wow, I thought I was looking at one of your beautiful tablescapes and took me a bit of scroll to realize it was actually a wreath. I love those Alice in Wonderland cards with story and the beautiful teapot with butterflies. I would be terrified to have it on a wreath, but it sure is beautiful! Gorgeous whimsey for the eyes!
Thank you! The teapot is enamel (not porcelain) so it’s lightweight and tied securely. :)
Amazing wreath Mary! You are so artistic.
Mary, how extraordinaire! Love it all!
The teapot ribbon has me swooning!
Beautiful!! I want to make one too now!!!
WOW!!! This is extraordinary! I love to make wreaths. MUST attempt something similar someday.
Love it!
