Working with a set of vintage teacups and saucers picked up at a resale shop, I tried to create a tablescape that melded the traditional with the modern for a Mother's Day Tea that she could replicate at her own home. In the end, I think I was able to bring a little bit of sass to a lady with a whole lot of class......
