Vintage Tea Rooms at the Norfolk Show!x

Hello all! 
The Country Rose and myself explored the Norfolk Show on Thursday and thought we could share bits of our day with you! There were so many lovely stall holders, but one in particular that we want to share with you is...
These people were so lovely! They run a traveling vintage tea room  It all started when the woman in charge, a lovely bubbly lady, was talking about how she hated coffee with a strong passion and want the traditional tea back! Their aim is to bring Tea Drinking back into England!!

Their bubbly team were so sweet! They were really welcoming and all gorgeous! They rock the vintage style very well, as their uniforms are pretty vintage clothes, matched with bright lipsticks!!



 Here is the lovely team! Along with myself and The CountryRose! 


 We took lots of photos so we could show you a tour around their wonderful set up!! They were amazing and let us go behind the scenes as well!! They even sang us a lovely song , Unfortunately another team member has the recording but i will hope to have it on here soon!


Lets take a look at all the cute little touches! If you are a follower of this blog and have been for a while you will know i love Cute little Touches.
Look at all the different type of tea, Really shows that tea is far from boring.



They know that no one likes waiting for their tea so they send round vintage magazines and  the staff have chit-chats with the customers. Its such a personal experience too, that we really reccomend!

The gorgeous and finely detailed  vintage crockery.


 


 Then there is the overall picture , I must say the interior is gorgeous and is one to add to my article about 1940's kitchens! 


Yum to those cakes!
Wow!! it is just too cute!!




 They have worked so hard towards this and I am so glad that they got this award, they all really deserve it! It was such a lovely atmosphere and if any of you are reading right now! You were all soo lovely , thank you so much for a wonderful time!

A quote taken from this website is: "Step back in time for a cup of the best! Tea Vintage is a travelling tearoom with a 1940s style." 
Which we all here at Vintage Country Rose Back up completely!

They really do a great job at bringing back the vintage experience, the mood and atmosphere is so jolly with authentic music and surroundings all to match the 1940's vintage theme! But not only do they do tea but lovely cakes and biscuits and proper sandwiches all made with love and care.

The Classic 1940's!




Hello All! I hope you liked the Photos, but it is time for another weekly interior Blog!!

We went to the Vintage fair on Saturday it was fab and later on this week we shall share our day with you, when we get the chance to! So keep Checking!!


Today we are traveling back to the good old 1940's , I simply loved the Kitchens in this period, full of bold colours and shapes! There was always one significant colour that stands out from the rest of them, often taken from the primary colours, Red, Blue, Yellow! Lets take a look at some typical gorgeous 1940's styles...
Here are some Classic kitchen Units , you can find some separate standing ones in antique shops today!!

The dominant colour here is Blue! Just Look at the classic Curtain drapes, so sweet, they just makes the room along with the gorgeous patterned flooring.
Another Primary colour for a dominant stand out bright colour! 


This one has a dominant of Yellow , and is cleverly tied in with hints of yellow, the space in this kitchen is cleverly used and the shape of the room really gives it that extra edge!



Here is a more modern version of a 1940's kitchen, notice the glass bricks on the counter, a cutie classic there!!

A gorgeous example here, just gorgeous!!
Well there you have it some cute 1940's Kitchens, the 1940's was a dramatic time as i am sure you know as World War 2 took place in the first Half of the Decade and The second half of the decade was spent putting it right!! So they did well to have made such Lovely , cheerful, inspirational Kitchens!
