I had the privilege of providing a vintage afternoon tea party and cocktail making class for a gorgeous bunch of girls in this Saturday on the North Coast of Ireland.
The tea party took place in a beautiful farmhouse at Mc Shane Glen holiday cottages, the view from the conservatory where we held the party was stunning, a panoramic spread of lush green fields and sparkling sea. 
We had our usual cake table laid out with hand printed signage and lovely glass cake platforms, I used the Yashica Box camera and a smattering of vintage French postcards as props to add to the vintage look.
Bunting transformed the room.
Home made three tier cake stands piled high with delicious treats (also home made – of course)
Luggage labels used as decoration made the event more personal.
Small bunches of flowers in milk jugs made the tables look pretty without taking up too much room.
A cocktail making workshop after the tea party was a fun finish.
