New Shop

Super sorry its been awhile since my last post, since the last post I've been extremely busy. On the 22nd October I signed the papers for my first shop. Then on the 11th November we opened the doors to the public.
The shop was a blank canvas with no kitchen, grubby walls and floors that looked like their best days were back in the '90s. But with a lot of elbow grease, lick of pink paint, cute butterfly wallpaper, new kitchen and vintage furniture and crockery we have managed to turn it around.
I knew from the start it would have a vintage vibe, I've been buying pieces of furniture over the past year and so many cups, saucers, plates and milk jugs from a lovely stall called Rosie Sloan.
Some new additions to Chintzy Cakes we have a mini tea room which at present seats 4 but I'm on the hunt for more chairs. We also do Afternoon Tea on a pre-order service to reduce waste, it means a more efficient service.
Over the next couple of weeks I'm hoping to get the blog and website up to date which will be a Christmas miracle :-)
Hope you all have a great Christmas and Happy New Year !!!
