Mad Hatters's Tea Party


Met a lovely rabbit yesterday. 
It is always exciting when a rabbit loves vintage china.
I did notice though that he was having problems drinking tea.
It was actually a Mad Hatter's Tea Party held at the Marriott hotel in aid of the Welsh Cancer Charity Tenovus.
They are an amazing charity that help patients and their families with support where and when they need it most.
We probably all know someone that is going through a tough time with cancer.
I know someone really special going through a tough time at the moment and it is great when there are so many charities and special people that are there to help.
A big thank you to all those amazing people that help.
And also thank you to lovely Natalie at tenovus for organising such a great event! Well done.


Thank you to Mr. Rabbit for liking vintage. 






You have to love these lovely red shoes worn by Lesley.


And this matching hat made by Pippa.


I love the whole heart and playing card theme.


Playing cards everywhere.


A beautiful flower pink hat.



Almost everyone there seemed to have a story. Some sad stories but also lots of happy stories that brings you hope.


A hat inspired by Neal's yard products.


There was a competition for the best hat.
This wallpaper and fabric inspired one won.


Love it, this photo almost makes the hat look like a dress with the little legs at the bottom.


Potted plants in tea cups on each table.
Everyone got a vintage cup and saucer to take home full of treats.


One lovely lady won my raffle donation: a Welsh green inspired cake-stand.


Lots more cake-stands and vintage china to play with.



What a lovely afternoon.
What special ladies,
with inspiring stories.

Big hugs to all those out there going through tough times.
