Vintage Afternoon Tea,

Fancy Vintage had the pleasure of working with Nia and the lovely fundraising team from Bobath at the weekend for their beautiful Vintage Afternoon Tea. It was a packed event with music, vintage stalls and lots of tea & cake.

(Of course all on pretty vintage china)

I have never met such a lovely group of people that all work so well together. So it was a whole lot of fun chatting and eating cake as well as selling some cake-stands and tea cup candles too.

Here are a few of the photographs from the event.

My favorite Apron.

Time for Tea sign.

Bobath do quite a bit of fund-raising.

This was a brilliant event for a very worthy cause. Go and read more about what Bobath do. They provide specialist physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy to children all over Wales who have cerebral palsy.

They raised over £600 on the day, which is so fantastic.

Busy, busy day.

I loved this tea drinker!

She had the most beautiful pink dress on.

Loved it.

Love the shape of this plate.

So lovely to meet Mrs Russell from Mrs Russell's Vintage China.

And of course loving Scrum Diddly cakes.

And Mrs R's cute red shoes!

It was one of our busiest days so far, as not only did we have this lovely tea party but we also had a large wedding of 120.

(More photos to follow)

Hope that you are all well. 

Take care for now, have a good weekend.

St. David's Day Vintage Tea & Coffee Morning,

We are exciting once again to be helping with the St. David's Day vintage tea & coffee morning coming up.  We raised so much money last year for the local church family and youth work fund.  

People were very generous.

So this time we have tried to find most of our green and yellow china to go with the theme of St. David's day and all things Welsh!

 We should also put out some red china too (Welsh Dragons!)

Hopefully all the daffodils will be out!

Check out here for our last Macmillan's big coffee morning photographs.

and here for last years's Valentine Vintage tea party.

Have a good day and if you are in the area, 

please do drop by and say hello.

(Do you think I should dress up in Welsh Costume?)

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.
