My friend, Mrs S (also a teacher) and I were overdue for a catch up and what started off as just getting our nails done, quickly turned into a
High Tea Pamper Party (dressing up for the occasion compulsory)
. Mrs S was happy to take care of the 'High Tea Party' side of things & I took care of the 'Pampering'. Together we had a
wonderful afternoon - enjoying some yummy scones (link to recipe below), sipping on a nice cup of tea and looking glamorous with our new manicure.
Here are a few photos from our day.

The day we decided that we were going to have a
High Tea Pamper Party, I came across a post on
30 Days of Smile's blog: "
Never Fail Scones" - Perfect timing or what? I have never made scones before
(I know, shame on me) so I was willing to give this recipe a go!
#makeithappen - And just like that, I made my first batch of scones! This recipe is SO simple - I totally recommend that you head over to CJ's page and check it out, and make some of the yummy scones for yourself!

You don't have to spend a lot of money when creating a High Tea Party, your local op-shops are perfect for collecting teapots, cups & sauces and other vintage items. A really fun idea to do with your daughter, mum, girlfriends or as a Baby Shower theme.
Have you been to or hosted a High Tea Party?
