A Flip Book Invitation to Lady Elizabeth's Salon

Dear Ladies

Now that our assembly rooms are active once again and we’ve enjoyed the delights of our first two balls, let us gather again for another special event. Lady Elizabeth desires the pleasure of your company at a Salon she is hosting at the assembly rooms for all the ladies in the surrounding villages so that we may enjoy one another’s conversation and get better acquainted with our new village residents. This shall be held November 13th, from 1:00 pm until 4:00 pm.

A Salon is a gathering of minds where we discuss our favourite poets, music and writers among other topics. The idea is to circulate and join in conversations we find interesting. We shall have a cakes from Eva Broome and sumptuous morsels to feast upon from Mrs. Pym and the Rose & Crown cooks to sustain us while we happily sip tea and chat.

For such an elegant gathering, a swap that is equally elegant is in order. Indira’s inspired idea to create a little flip book to highlight a special tea is just the thing we need. To describe our booklet, the cover shall be decorated with beautiful things from your stores to create a delicate design that invites the recipient to open immediately. The first two pages of this booklet will show an invitation to the Salon that shall be embellished prettily to guarantee attendance. The following two pages shall show tea in all its glory from fine china to the delectable things served at a high tea. The last two pages shall house a tea bag on one side and your letter, filled with happy discourse, on the other. The back cover of your booklet you may decorate however you choose, in keeping with our era and our theme of tea.

Because this is an involved creation we will have ample time to complete it. Please fee free to get in touch should you have any queries or concerns.
