Hamnet Oscar Tea 2026 leaning into the themes of nature and mysticism with Shakespeare’s wife Agnes, an herbalist processing life and death, as her husband writes Hamlet.
We did place settings with cups of rosemary, lavender and Thyme.
A ceiling of greenery and Hanging books. Perfect vintage Wellesley china thanks to my sweet nephew Scott.❤️
I am deeply indebted to my friends for braving the intense heat days before to put it all together. Turns out that fellowship and support was the best part. Thank you Kelley, David, Lisa, Joel, Danny and Sam!
Beautiful book stylings by my creative crafting bestie partner and this year honored to have Magnificent production designer and friend .duthie in da house!
And that tree! That’s all from my ever talented friend Sam!
For keeping Oscar Tea love alive!
Plus Erik made 138 tea sandwiches!!
Page to the end for a fiery homage to bar for a Vampire’s Kiss cocktail.
Much appreciation for my usual A+ suspects:
designer Robin absorbing the vision and taking it a step further. Those floral urns are from a wedding 30 years ago. 😘
Ky and Kim for floral beauty on a budget.
Jeff is THE man!
