Vintage China and Cookies,

Cookies on Royal Albert vintage sandwich plate.

I came across this china the other day in my garage and couldn't believe that I had forgotten all about it.

There is always the thought that one should save such pretty vintage china for a special occasion, but I really feel that everyday is an occasion to be happy about.

So here it is.

Plus it's also good to try out the china before it gets hired out!

Love the Royal Albert gold detail and pattern.

 And pretty table runner.

  Perfect cup size for a coffee.

 China getting to know each other.

 5 large cookies.

Flower detail.

Love this one!

Cheeky hand

Have a great 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.

Fancy Vintage Dresses,

Like most people, I have a love for pretty vintage dresses. So I thought it was time to take some photographs of these cute dresses that are hiding away in my cupboard. I was actually inspired by the fact I was a bit cheeky and brought a couple of dresses last week. And while I was hiding them away I found the other dresses. So here they are.

Really cute light pink vintage dress

Selection of vintage dresses hanging on my door.

Another new one, really pretty delicate green dress.

I got a bit excited by this sepia collage. 

I've had this blue lace dress for years, 

 I so love the shape of this big full light blue skirt.

Too bad it doesn't fit!

Thought this orange dress was such an unusual colour, but so much fun!

You could certainly tango in this!

Also I have had this cream lace dress for years, a little short but cute.

Pretty pink and gold fabric. 

Bright gold long vintage dress.

Another newish one.

Unusual peach coloured dress. It came with a pretty light blue sash which looks really nice, just washing it at the moment.

Long red dress with a big bow at the back.

Kind of liked the white ceramic door knob with the vintage dresses hanging next to it.

Hope you enjoyed.

 Thinking these dresses could be useful for photo shoots in the future.

Have a good day.
