MORE ABOUT THE TEA
“We want to create an event that not only reminds people of the importance of sustainability in our community, but also is a lot of fun!” said co-chairs of the event, Kelly Peterson and Marie Brown, who are both enthused about bringing this event back to the community for its second year.
The tea room will be adorned with the art of recycle artists and vendors, and 40 tables will be artfully decorated with beautiful full service tea sets of all eras and motifs. Green artists and vendors will have their creative recycled, or up-cycled, original works of art for sale--convenient holiday gifts for family, friends, teachers and coaches.
Preview Night on Saturday Dec 4th from 5:00pm-8:00pm will offer a sneak preview and the chance to vote for one’s favorites of all the decorated tables, as well as the opportunity to shop among the unique and creative vendors before the crowds on Sunday.
On Sunday, emcee Kari Hagensmith, will introduce the fashions and models--all women and young adults from the community--while guests are treated to finger sandwiches, scones, desserts and, of course, fresh brewed tea. A live auction will offer chances to bid on unique handmade items, and creative raffle baskets will be available for lucky winners.
The fashion show will consist of gently used clothing and accessories provided by ReNew Boutique at 201 Walnut Street in Old Roseville. Guests will be encouraged to purchase fashions modeled in the show, available for try-on at the event. In addition, 100% volunteer-run ReNew, located just a few short blocks from the Blue Line Gallery will offer an in-store discount for all attendees immediately after the event. Proceeds from clothing sales at ReNew benefit homeless women and children in the Acres of Hope program.
In addition to ReNew, recycled fashion designers, Haute Trash, will share their own entertaining runway fashion show to help empower and remind us all of the importance of rethinking, reusing and recycling the resources on our planet. www.hautetrash.org
The ladies’ hair and makeup are generously furnished by Djadu Salon in Roseville and Just B Cosmetics.
