I have just made six table cloths and four hanging panels for Jo and Mike's party next month. Bunting is soon to follow! This is a fab modern take on my rather traditional vintage style fabrics. I am always looking to add another dimension to the decorative ideas that I can offer, so thank you Jo for this inspiring new look.

A lovely picture of Adam, Lucy and Emma enjoying fine dining(!!!?) 'supper in a tent'
We had a party in the garden at the weekend. 36 seated in the vintage marquee. Very thrilled with bare trestle tables! This is a look no one else has used yet, everyone prefering to use cloths, but perrsonally I love the rustic look. Very practical too, with no table cloths to wash ( just 36 napkins instead!)

Cakes for Gill's birthday. The big one on the top was locally made by a brilliant baker who makes fantastic and delicate sugar-craft flowers. Not a great aerial shot, but they did all look very pretty, with all the fairy cakes decorated with flowers too.
Here we were at the Beaufort Polo event near Westonbirt. We were selling shabby chic homewares and we also had our little coffee shop selling home made cakes etc.
Oh yes!!! wehey!! At last I have managed to upload a picture onto this blogger thingamy!
This is the new, old 'baby' tent, the perfect addition to a garden party that needs a childrens corner! This tent, like the others, is about 50 years old, cream canvas with brass sleeved poles, very, very sweet!
