Shopping In Williamsburg
When we started planning for our bed and breakfast, we decided that one of the events we would like to offer is Afternoon Tea Parties for ladies groups or young girls. For the ladies groups we will offer a four course tea with an assortment of teas to choose from. One of the courses will be Scones with homemade jams, curds and cream.
Maple and Oatmeal Scones
Cheddar and Thyme Scones
As we prepare for opening, I am always looking for items that we will need. Today, I was in Williamsburg and stopped by the Williamsburg Antique Mall. It is a warehouse of booths with so many antiques that it would take a day just to see it all. In my search today, I came across three cups that I am adding to our serve for our Afternoon Teas.
Yellow, white and gold tea cup
Blue and white with roses inside the cup and on the center of the plate.
Blue and white English tea cup

I absolutely LOVE afternoon tea … of course, my favorite are the scones, lemon curd and Devonshire cream along with a wonderfully fragrant hot cup of tea on pretty china.
I do too. I look forward to having that at our house, all homemade. Okay not the tea part… hahah
Can I make my reservations now??? 😀
I would love to take your reservation, but not sure just yet when we are opening. It just depends on how fast we can get the furnishing done. I will let you know though when we open up the reservation site : )
😀 — this is an exciting time — enjoy the journey and take lots of photos of the progress so you can look back and remember what you accomplished!!
Those tea-cups are just g-orgeous!! I’d love to come and “play ladies” for afternoon tea. It’s just a bit far from Australia!!
Thank you! Well maybe one day you can “drop by” for a cup of tea and some homemade scones. I would love to see Australia!
We love Williamsburg. Went there just before Christmas 2010 and it was a real delight. I’ll be posting an article I wrote about experiencing CW in Winter soon. Hope you’ll stop by and take a look.
Looking forward to reading more on your adventures. Cheers, Rita
