Girl I have never owned a Rooster before...wait a minute I have but everyone I get my daughter Dawna steals and takes home ha ha!!!
I found this Topiary Roo at Michael's...put it in a pot added some ivy, ribbon and flowers to it... 
Put it into one of my yellow ware bowls ca. 1920 added some Spanish moss around it to cover up the clay pot....
Does he not look proud....I know he'll be "Happy To Be" here until my Dawna comes this weekend and takes him to live at her house..... 
Sat out my Spode blue/yellow plate next to it 
Put some silver spoons into a blue sunde glass and of course had to cover it with my all time favorite cloche 
I love this table runner I got from the Hospice thrift store as it reversible 
Added some Toile pillows to the chairs so you could be comfortable to have your tea... 
I sat this tea up on one of my Tin lacy chargers, Tea pot is from my Dear adopted daughter Glenda from Tootsie Time she send it to me for my Birthday 2 years ago...is it not pretty
I hope you enjoyed your Tea and Roo's ha ha!! Please grab a cookies on your way out...
May all of you have a GREAT day on your side of the mountain...Thanks for coming by...Until next time from my mountain top to yours,
Hugs and smiles Gl♥ria

Hi Sis...
Just read your sweet note and came right over! Darlin', I'm so sorry to hear that you've been under the weather again...or should I say...still! What ever are we going to do with ourselves? I finally got the styes in my eye cleared up and rid of the ear ache! So I'm feeling better...although, I'm coming down off of my steroid "high"! Hehe! I always hate that part! You know, when I'm taking steroids...I feel normal again! NO pain and lots of energy! I have been taking advantage of it too...getting a few things done around here! But now I'm starting to crash...not getting anything done today! Well enough belly achin'! Hehe! You know that I'm always praying for you, Sis!!!
Well Darlin', I love, love, LOVE your new rooster topiary! He's simply adorable! Yep...you better enjoy him for the few days that you have left with him! Hehe! Glad to hear that Dawna is coming for the weekend...have fun, Sweetie!!! Anyway, I do love your rooster topiary...you did great building him!!! Ohhh...and your new blue and yellow Spode plate looks so perfect in that vignette! Everything looks sooo Springy!!! Girl, your tea is gorgeous! Ahhh...I love your pretty blue and white teapot! How sweet of Glenda to gift you with that! Your little teacup and saucer are sooo pretty too! Ohh...and I love that little round linen napkin with the delicate embroidery! It's all just gorgeous! Uh..hum...I think I will have one of those cookies...in fact, just go and get the bag, honey! Hehe! You know I love you, Darlin'!!! Thank you for sharing your new pretties with us...and I loved your tea setting!!!
Love ya,
Chari
I did not even know that I love Roo's until one day I was shopping and fell in love with my little Roo. He holds all my wooden spoons. If I had lots of room I would be having a flock of these guys around. Yours is just beautiful.
Your rooster is so pretty and the tea and cookies look delicious. I love your blue theme...I used blue too! Gorgeous job!
Gloria,
I love the roo! And I love your blue and white china! So pretty!
Debbie
Everything looks so wonderful and inviting. I love your "Roo," he looks great in the bowl.

So pretty! I love all the blue you have. What is that in the background...an old stove? It looks neat!

This is sooo Beautiful! I love the blue and yellow and the rooster, aren't you the clever one!
Your so sweet to let Dawna get all your cool stuff! What a fun Mom you must be! Hope your week is going well, Hugs, Cindy
Hi Gloria,
Thank you for your sweet words on my post about my lost diamond. It really does hurt. I'm very down right now about the whole thing. I'm sure I will feel better tomorrow.
I thank you for your kindness. And I will be taking a couple of cookies on my way out the door. Starting a diet tomorrow. lol

I love how you jazzed up that topiary, Gloria. It looks fantastic. Try to hang on to it! Your vignette is very pretty. I love the Spode plate and the cloche over the spoons. I'd love to be sitting there having tea with you, munching on one of those delicious looking cookies! I like that table runner, too.
Have a wonderful week, sis friend! :-)

Now if I were there I would steal that wonderful rooster topiary first. I just LOVE, LOVE it. Your teapot and tray are just so pretty and it all looks so yummy. You do always come up with the prettiest things. Thanks so much for joining the party. Hugs, Marty
Oh the rooster is adorable. You put it together so nice and spring-like. Love all the blue and white treasures. Makes me want to join you out on the terrace. Hope your snow is melting.
Gloria, I will be right over to have some tea and cookies with you and Roo.
Oh, I just love your rooster topiary, and it looks perfect with your blue tea set! I'll be over shortly for a cup of tea and a cookie! :)
Oh Gloria! That roo topiary is just so pretty. You are really creative and talented, girl! Thanks for telling me what the wavy glass is called. And yes, I got my tassel from the Tassel House...Christine
Gloria, How wonderful for you to come join me for tea! I am in love with Mr. Rooster! He is adorable. I also love the stove in the background. Roosters and Tea are some of my most favorite things, beside dishes! lol The Spode plate is so pretty. How lovely the teapot is, Glenda sent you! The cookies on the lacy charger with the little tea doily is so pretty. I just love the tea cup. Your Table tops and Tea are just lovely! Thank you so much for joining me for my 1st Tea Time Tuesday!
Hi Gloria! Oh, I love that new Rooster and how you've spiffed him up. Now you best hide him so Dawna won't see him. :) Love the looks of your tea! You make everything so pretty.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Hi, Sister Friend, I am so in love with your blue and white tea pot and the cup I could just die. I LOVE them...so so pretty. You do throw a lovely tea, young lady!!

Oh girl you've got me happy seeing this post! I just LOVE this roo! You really created something so precious here. I can see why he won't last and will go and live with Dawna. HeHe! ~Gorgeous!
Thank you fopr your sweet words. I must tell you I do owe my success to Alex. He has been WONDERFUL and has lost 15 pounds himself. He's so thrilled and feels great!
Love ya girl, ~Melissa :)
My Mr. Linky went away can you come back and link your post to Tea Time Tuesday. So Sorry
What a great tea party! Love the blue and white and your rooster!
Love your rooster. What a crafty gal you are. The yellow and blue plate is so pretty. Thanks for sharing.
Your tabletops look so beautiful. Please take a minute to pop over to my place too. I would love to have you at Terra Del Sole (Land of the Sun).
I love your linen. Toile is all over the place at my house.
You'll have to start chaining down your roosters so that your daughter doesn't take them! lol I love what you did with that rooster, it's gorgeous. You have such a flair for decorating and I need you over here to rearrange my house!!! hehe Would absolutely love to sit down with you and have a cup of tea at that beautifully decorated table. xoxo
This is the cutest rooster in the world! The other day, two huge live roosters left the barn and took up with the goats, pecking their way along the fence row. Each roo would make three Yorkies.
I love your blue and white china, and the cloche with spoons is such a cute idea.

Great post and full of wonderful things. I do love your yellow and blue plate!!!. I helped myself to two cookies one for each hand I mean one for each thigh! LOL
Take care and enjoy your day,
Big hugs, Elizabeth
Gorgeous! I love toile and you have blended all the different ones so beautifully! The tea was delicious and the cookies were yummy:). Thank for having me over for tea:).
Blessings,
Kim
BTW, I have to respond to something you said in a comment on my blog about your hubby being slow to finish projects. When you have the time read the bathtub diaries (my other blog). Hubby told me the project would take a few weeks which turned into 10 months! My hubby is wonderful but slow as molasses in January! I can relate to your remodelling woes!
Mornin' Sis...
Just coming by to say hello and see what you're up to today! Girl, it's cold and rainy at my place. The rain is supposed to turn to snow sometime today...yuk! I really am ready for a change in weather...a change in seasons! It will be nice to enjoy the nice weather in Vegas...won't it? Hoping that we have good weather while we're there! Hey, did you catch Pawn Stars last night? Russ and I were talking again about how much fun it would be to go and visit their shop! Hehe! Wonder if the contakerous old man will be there? Hehe! I just get the biggest kick out of him!
Well Sis...hope that you're feeling better today! You know that I worry about you! Sending all my love and lots of prayer, Dearheart!!!
Love ya,
Chari
PS...I don't think I told you in my last note how much I love your pretty blue toile/plaid table runner and oooh, that pretty matching pillow! Love them!!!
Oh girl, ya sure know how to make tea time special. That rooster is just precious! Thanks so much for your charming hospitality and the cookie! Heeeheehehe!!!
Have a fun day filled with sweet blessings from above!!!!
Gloria, When you get "the blues," it's the happiest case of 'em that I've ever seen! It's all beautiful! Your Spode blue/yellow is my favorite thing in the post, but that rooster topiary is a close second ... FUN!
Hope the rest of your week goes well.
Bye for now,
Bill
What a wonderful tea party !
Hide that roo from Dawna when she comes- it is just too sweet! I love how you added the yellow/blue plate w/it and the table runner.
Sorry I haven't been by much these days. I hope to have more free time soon! Hugs, Sue

Gloria, you need to guard that roo with your life! He looks so great with all of those special additions you made! Hide him when Dawna comes to visit and just hope he doesn't crow while she's there. I don't recall seeing that wonderful cloche before. (I know, I'm getting sooo old) That is so special. I love it! Of course I love your blue and yellow plate too. laurie
