I won’t lie to you, this Alice in Wonderland mad hatter tea party took some serious effort by Donna at Party Wishes, but I think you’ll agree that the outcome was well worth it.
She had her hands full from making the croquet game complete with 4′ tall croquet wickets (out of 1/4″ plywood, painted both sides, supported by 1×1″ pieces of wood with rebar drilled into the bottoms), stuffed flamingo covered mallets and hedgehog balls (4″ styrofoam balls covered in paper and Mod Podge) to hand painting massive tea cups (from the L.A. Flower Mart) to setting a bright and beautiful table.
So creative and so well executed.

Did you make the giant tea cups or purchase them? I am producing an Alice ballet and need props for the tea party scene. Thanks
I believe in her original post she said that she purchased them at an LA flower market and then painted them. Good luck with your ballet set!
omg this is so awesome! I’m doing the disney script for a play at school- all of these props would be sweet! THIS IS AMAZING!
