Vintage Typewriters...

If you are planning a vintage themed wedding, but don't want the usual roses and pearls assemble, think out of the box for quirky table centrepieces, our vintage typewriters would look fab used as a table centrepiece, mixed with other vintage items such as vintage books and bottles.



 

They could even be used as an "alternative guest book", just got your friends and family to type you a message or wedding advice.

Vintage Teacups

If like me you *adore* pretty vintage china and want to incorporate it into your wedding theme, there are so many ways you can do so...

Filled with old fashioned roses they make the sweetest wedding centrepieces



Buy or hire our soya teacup candles, they look so pretty lit at night, the translucent china glows beautifully.

If you are interested in hiring any of our vintage crockery please take a look here we'd love to hear from you.

Swallows:-

The "Godess of Shopping" has been with me this weekend, I couldn't believe my luck when I spied these gorgie china cups with retro swallows on them, I  just had to have them...

There are six swallows on the tea plate, two on the saucer, and four on the cup...three on the outside and one flying out of the cup...

"True hope is swift, and flies with swallow's wings"

~ William Shakespeare

And the bestest things is  have Not 1, Not 2, Not 3......BUT 4 of these babies!

Woo hoo

I also got these muscari, I think I'm going to use these in my first wedding fair of the year at Albert Halls run by the lovely ladies Maxine and Natasha of Little White Books

Stop And Smell The Roses

We are always searching for pretty vintage items to add to our hire list and this is one of the newest finds from our "junking" trips to flea markets and thrift shops.

I absolutely adore this crystal rose bowl, so much so it has pride of place on the conservatory dining room table at home (for now until I find my next junking treasure), that's what's so good about buying things to hire out for our lovely brides, we more often than not use them in our home...let's face it this is just to pretty to be stuck in storage!!

We added a few vintage books and my grandmother's pearls, rhinestone necklace and brooch to make a pretty vignette.

The little pink butterfly you can see on the books is a little memento saved from our wedding day.

We have tons of pretty vintage glass candlesticks that look just wonderful mixed with the many crystal rose bowls we have, and in the background is my favouritist glass cloche, I've put little rose favour boxes inside it, which can be found here but you could use it for anything really, cakes, cheese, or with beautiful flowers inside to make an original table centre piece, we have a great collection of these now in various shapes and sizes.

Soooo for now I'm just taking time to admire my newest vintagey find and taking the time to stop and smell the roses!

Happy Days!
