    hmm the table and tea set look kind of combined to me. Like placing a chess table, where you can only put chairs around it. Otherwise the four cup set up wouldn't work at a bigger table.

    That was how I saw it too! :mrgreen:

    It also looks like all four cups of tea appear automatically, even if only two people are seated at the table. This likely means that the activity is limited to four people, as well.

    Neither group appears to be having a conversation as they drink their tea, so that is still an unknown; but the set itself looks lovely!

    I have so many ideas for a tea room.

    The first thing I am going to do is take one of the rooms from the Deliciously Indulgent Bakery and turn it into a tea room. I think it will look perfect in that style building. That way I can jump right in and play before I start building my own tea room. I have already made the back portion of the Deliciously Indulgent Bakery into a florist shop.

    @samiam,
    I was thinking of placing a long row of tables together with MOO, Mad Hatter Style, but that would cause some foot stamping if the cups are pre-attached and not placed like the menus from the Bistro.

    Looks like we need more details.

    Well, my favorite pastime is playing the Sims, so I guess every set focuses on that. lol Still, this looks really nice! Can't wait to see more!

    Squeeeee been wanting this for so long!

    By favorite past time, I think they are referring to the Sims 2 tea set? (For years people been asking for this for Sims 3 since it was in Sims 2) Which makes me think we will get a Asian ceremonial tea set version too or in lieu of.

    Sorry it is a female dominated game most items and clothing are geared towards females probably cause more females play this game and since this series is almost over don't expect a large quick male injection of store stuff, we will be lucky for a few male things for any genre, style or theme. More adrenaline like stuff hasn't really been ask for as much as other things... long story short we will get kids, elders and maybe even maternity before another all or male majority set in a male heavy theme like adrenaline.

    This isn't a venue is it? The #BrunchAtTheOldMill tag suggests it could be, but I'm pretty sure SGCopeland said July's release would be a set. An old-world tea venue would be nice, but I'd rather just have it as a set so we can buy individual items.

    I so, so hope we get some doilies, tablecloths and cups as decor with this. So much potential for building an old English tearoom. :mrgreen: Didn't Copeland also hint at scones? :shock:

    The dinerware looks so lovely. I hope we can also use it as deco. And hopefully some new herbs like chamomile and green tea leaves. I also wonder if the table is new or if we get tablecloth. tablecloth would be nice. ;)

    Yes, SGCopeland has hinted quite strongly that it will only be a set. But, no actual confirmation that it is not a venue.

    I'm not sure about the scones, though. Although I do suspect there will be another PC object with this set, possibly food-related, maybe related to the Bohemian Garden set?

    Also, does anyone know if those curtain are new? What about the patterns?

    I adore new curtains for the many-shaped windows we have. Also, I would love it if we got some new CASt patterns with this set, too.

    Yippee! Now, it would be so nice if the bakery would go on the Sale page around the same time as this tea set is released. The Daily Deal for the bakery sells way too fast.

    Wouldn't it be great if this set also had iced tea?

    Oh, I adore Hyacinth and her bragging about her Royal Doulton hand-painted periwinkle china!

    Hope we can CASt the china, I am definitely making a periwinkle pattern! :lol::lol::lol:

    Edit to say in my excitement I failed to say - Thank You Store Team!

    Question: can the tea set be put on different tables or is it all one object? (Love the table... just curious).

    Tea for Four
    So lovely. The tea set is very nice. I'm hoping we get many other designs on the tea set. But those flowers are very lovely. It would also be adorable to see a lace decor glove hanging from a table Or decor wide brimed hat. Some harvestables for different tea's would be great. ALthough the set looks conected to the table, it would be nice if the table clothe itself was placable.
