Candelabras For Hire

Whilst the weather was dry on Sunday, I took the opportunity of photographing some of the taller candelabras we have to hire at Saddleworth Shindigs.

I can't tell you how much fun, Pat,my gorgeous mother-in-law (you'll no doubt be hearing a lot about her as she is such a big help and inspiration to me) and I had dressing the candelabras up and then displaying them in her beautiful garden.

Here's a just few of the ideas we came up with:-



Cream candelabras with pink roses and pearl
Cream Candelabra (not including decorations) Hire £15



Silver plated candelabras with ivy, roses and pearl garlands
Silver Plated Candelabra (not including decorations) Hire £17



Silver plated candelabra with pink roses
Silver Plated Candelabra (not including decorations) Hire £17

There are so many other things you can do, crystal always looks lovely near candles especially at night when the candlelight catches them and makes them twinkle, crystal garlands instead of pearls would look so oppulent.

I think they are just perfect to add romance and glamour to your wedding.

Teacup & Jelly Mould Candles

This weekend we have been having so much fun making candles, out of vintage teacups and vintage jelly moulds, these are to be sold in our shop and will also be offered for hiring out purposes for weddings/parties....they make such an elegant display and look heavenly at night as the china seems to all light up from the inside out.

Not only would these look amazing as centrepieces on your table, but would make such a unique wedding favour, or just a gift for a loved one.

Mannequins For Table Centre Pieces

This week we had a meeting with the lovely Katie and Jim who are getting married later this year.

Katie wanted a vintage/shabby chic wedding with a difference, so we invited her down to view our wedding props. She loved these mannequin wire forms.

I have to say they look amazing and just that little bit different than the usual martini glass vases and tall vase and feather combos that so many people are using lately.

Dressed with pearls, flowers, and garlands these can look so pretty and wonderfully shabby chic, sure to get your guests talking for months to come.

Helloooo and Welcome

Hello and a very warm welcome to my first ever blog!!

My name is Mandy, and after getting married in August, 2009, to my best friend and soul mate Chris, I suffered the dreaded "post wedding blues".

It's true I'd officially caught the wedding bug and so after such wonderful feedback from my own wedding and much encouragement from family and friends Saddleworth Shindigs a vintage china hire and vintage shop was born.

Through this blog I aim to put some of my ideas and inspirations through along with items we have to offer at Saddleworth Shindigs from vintage china hire to vintage inspired wedding favours and beautiful vintage jewellery.

Here is a selection of our pretty china cups:-








And we are building a large collection of the prettiest tea and coffee pots:-





Well that's all for my first posting, please bear with me as I suffer technophobia so unsure of how this will turn out, and I must get a shuffle on it's Mother's Day tomorrow and I need to go out and do some shopping.

Thanks for looking in

Mandy xxx
