Princess Style Tea Party at Christina Re 10 If All The World Were Fancy..

Insert Self Here for Blissful Time.

Last Saturday in honor of the delightful Violet Le Beaux being in town, a group of like minded bloggers (and a pair of well trained partners) got together to enjoy and afternoon tea in true girly style. In a little known corner of Collingwood, Melbourne, is a lovely store that is bringing girly back. Christina Re is well known for her stunning DIY stationery collection that let’s you create customised pieces of correspondence magic on paper, vellum and quilted card to name but a few.  To make the experience of selection and creation much more enjoyable, they have recently launched a small in store cafe to supply tea and cakes to weary crafters.  After popping in for a much needed lemonade the other week, I was overwhelmed by the serenity and light of it all, promptly making a note to bring back a bunch of appreciative friends.  And so we did.

Also in attendence were Kitty’s Drawings and Circa Vintage to help us improve the vintage lover versus princess contingent.  I met the two styles in the middle by wearing a 1960′s pink square dancing dress and vintage blue petticoat!

It was as fun and fancy as it looked, there is no doubt we’ll be doing it again. In fact, I think I shall declare this weekend;

DIY Tea Party Weekend

So have a little tea and a cake or two with me.

    Ha! I just discovered this shop on Wednesday and was thinking to myself “what a great place to blog about!” I’m gaga over the paper craft they sell there, and as it’s only a 5 minute walk from my house I think I’ll be having lots of mini tea and cake parties there with friends! Such a lovely shop!

  2. Violet says:

    Tea party :D That was such an awesome day!

  3. Belinda says:

    Your Posts always make me smile … if I was the Mommy of girls I’d like their days to be just like this!

    Haha I can see myself eyeing off those sandwiches, and with good reason. They were very yum ?

    Thankyou so much again for inviting me, I had heaps of fun!

    it just like a princess gathering!

  6. This shop is right around the corner from my house and I’ve been meaning to try it for a while. Now I have a good excuse – those little sweet bites look delicious!

    oooh, I’m soooo needing a shop like that in Glasgow! There’s plenty of craft shops, plenty of cafe, but not two mixed together! Maybe I should do it…. nice dreams!

    Hello Candice…… I JUST LOVE afternoon tea, but not for the tea..for the sweets. You all look like you’re having just a blast.

  9. Hooray to no more bugs! So glad I can comment…hopefully!…once again. I shall let my pals know too :)

    Would you believe that MY bugs returned yesterday though?! Grrr to the naughty internet ;)

    Looks like a fab time. You photographed Miss Esme so well. She always reminds me of a movie star, she just has that look. And you and Violet look like princess twins :) One blonde, one brunette!
    Too cute <3

    BTW I'm crushing on your ph covers. I have an ipod like that for the gym, any recomendations at to where I can get some girly sparkle like yours?!
    Ohhh and round where I live, some gorgeous shops have popped up that I think you'd LOVE. Japanese tee shirts etc! I got myself a pink singlet with a cartoon girl and kitty and couldn't help but think of you :)

    Hi! I’ve been a reader of yours for the past few months and I was so happy when I saw this post! I’m visiting Melbourne at the end of this month and after reading this post, I know I have to visit this place! May I know where is this? Would you have the exact location….and the cupcakes! Too cute! Are they pricey?

    I’m sorry for all the questions but they are so adorable! And so are you!
