Mad Hatters Teaparty at Bake-a-Boo, London!

On Sunday I photographed Vicky’s Mad Hatter Fascinator Workshop at the gorgeous London teashop Bake-a-Boo, in Hampstead.

It was a riotous affair, with a troupe of hens plus bride, several brides to be and the lovely Miranda, Editor of Cosmo Bride all in attendance to make fine millinery creations.

Bake-a-Boo was the most fantastic location for the afternoon, I’ve never seen such a wonderful tearoom and definitely want to take my Mum back there for a lovely afternoon tea when next in London! They had gone to town with the Mad Hatter theme, and had fab biscuits in the shape of white rabbits, jam tarts and all manner of Alice in Wonderland type goodies! Vicky’s pal Alex had also used her talents to make some great ‘eat me’ and ‘drink me’ tags.

Clarabows Fascinator Workshop at Caffe Clifton, Bristol

My very talented and imaginative friend Vicky Rowe, who runs Vintage Teasets in Bristol has always been a dab hand at making her own hats and fascinators. She’s recently developed this side of her business into her new website www.clarabows.co.uk (created by my husband Lee!) and has started hosting the most fabulous fascinator workshops at gorgeous venues across the UK.

I joined her at Caffe Clifton in Bristol this Monday to shoot some images at one of her workshops for her new site, and what’s more I even got a chance to try my own hand at making a fascinator (a lovely little teal green number!).

I’ll be heading up to London with her for the next date which is a Mad Hatters Tea Party afternoon workshop on Sunday March 7th at uber cute Hampstead tearooms Bake-a-boo www.bake-a-boo.com/. We also plan to take in afternoon tea at the brilliant Sketch as a birthday treat (I’ll be 28 in two weeks time – eeek!).

For all the details of Vicky’s London workshop check out www.bake-a-boo.com/workshops – it would be great to see you there!
