Table matters

I’m so over the set of plain white table ware on everyone’s table!  It’s time to bring some character and flair back to your dining experience.   So… as the old Maxwell and William’s chip and go to plate and bowl heaven I’m replacing them one by one with sweet finds from op shops, garage sales and second hand stores.

A good mix of table ware not only makes a dinner party a whole lot cooler…it makes small events nicer.  A la Nigella…if I’m making myself the perfect snack…then I want it on the perfect dish.

It’s like finally ditching the safe black handbag from your wardrobe….once you’ve brought in some beautiful plates and bowls, you can go from strength to strength with a cool mix of table cloths, place mats, vases…etc etc.

And afternoon teas will have a graciousness that’s long been missing…

Vintage tableware is so in right now that top end wedding planners are making it a big feature of their packages… and rightly so…how great does the grooms setting look?

And this Mad Hatters Tea Party is fantastic!  I’m so doing this!
