It's been a busy week at Cow & Ghost Towers. Pleased to have some time this evening to put the new shelving into place in the garden room. Some of the china we have to rent out is already in place. It's great to see it finally neatly stored and not in random boxes. Also lovely to look at like this.

Shelves
A busy afternoon at Cow & Ghost Towers.
New shelving to store the bone china we rent out.
It's had a coat of paint. Big plus doing this
in the garden on such a sunny day.
Next step is putting it together............
We've also painted the floor
of the garden room where it's stored and displayed.
Photos of the finished thing will follow
when we finish it

Bone china rental.
Really enjoying this lovely sunny morning.
Spent a cheery hour in the garden workroom
sorting our vintage bone china.
Thought I'd remind everyone we have quite a
collection of miss matched china available for rental.
Enough trios for 100 people.
Also jugs, bowls, glass caked stands and
what my Granny would have called
Bread and butter plates.
We love looking at the different patterns.
Had some fun with cups and the camera.

Tea for two....
What a busy few weeks.
No complaints though. It's been very enjoyable.
A week on holiday and a weekend in the garden.
Back to normal today.
A morning of catching up. Time for a cuppa.
Reminded me of this gem we found on our travels.
A tea for two set by J & G Meakin.
So pretty, and the teapot is such a fun size.
It'll be on our stand at the next few fayres.
More on here about those soon.
Happy Monday.

Garden
Please excuse our absence over the weekend.
Home from our lovely week away and
decided to take advantage of the weather by spending
nearly every daylight hour in the garden.
So relaxing. Enjoying seeing all the vintage bits
we have dotted around out there.
Pots will be next. They're all ready for planting in May,
when all danger of frost has passed.

Holiday - Day 4
Another lovely day thanks to the National Trust.
Today was 'The Vyne' near Baisingstoke.
A gem of a house at the heart of a parkland
style garden.
Jane Austen used to visit for dances.
Could easily imagine her in this beautiful
long gallery observing the "goings on"
to work into her novels.
