Birthday Table

Justify Full
The surprise we were hatching for my sister's birthday was this - a beautiful table on the verandah of our house in South Australia for a Birthday afternoon tea. It was so much fun to make and made Elle's 21st birthday extra special.
We made all the decorations a week before her birthday and then set it up on the verandah while Elle was out buying food for Christmas lunch.
I love the way the colours we chose complemented the colours of the bush behind. The trees were the perfect backdrop for our circular fans and paper garlands.

More green on the table with a straw table runner and some Green Apples bought from the market the day before. Little touches of pink in the flowers added a touch of colour - perfect.

It looked really beautiful, but the best thing was the expression of joy on Ellen's face as she walked up the path to the house.
