Mitchell & Dent's Tittle Tattle

If like Mitchell & Dent; you live for sweet-scented blooms in vintage cut-glass vases, silk-embroidered shawls with impossibly long fringing, sugarcakes and cups of black tea in pretty china over crocheted cotton doilies, then Vintage Floral is the wedding suite we made just for you. You might be a niche market, but we don’t care! And besides Vintage Floral is open to other options. She would be equally as happy announcing a high tea or a baby shower. Just don’t expect her to slap on a pair of snakeskin boots and rock out with the boys.

My goodness, we have a lot to tittle tattle about. Mitchell & Dent have just returned from a little jetsetting jaunt over to the eastern side of the country, but before we launch into our musings about Melbourne, we want to show you something. In our absence, the too too clever Angela Higgins delivered her incredible images of the new Mitchell & Dent wedding stationery. We must also thank the lovely Fiona from Antiquitea for lending us a little of her vintage china for the shoot and you can’t top Leederville’s François for mouth-watering macaroons.

This is the letterpressed Woodland Crest suite. To take a peek visit the website, order a sample pack or request a catalogue of designs, options and pricing.

I have 80% of half a new kitchen and my weekend chore was to empty the old cutlery draw into the new cutlery draw. In the midst of abandoning a decade’s worth of chopsticks, I found my long lost baby spoon and was instantly transported back to childhood. My sister’s baby spoon had a kitten on it and I was always secretly jealous, but with hindsight, I lucked out. Mine is silver and more traditional, shaped a bit like one of these beautiful bone china spoons by Caroline Swift. You can also read about her in the latest issue of Dumbo feather, pass it on. Inspirational. Glorious.

Like this rolling pin, I too am made in England. Unfortunately I have no typographic treatment announcing my place of origin. Made in bone china with turned beech handles, this gorgeous rolling pin is the brainchild of Kathleen Hills. Oh, if only I baked.

There is nothing more lovely than a dinner table adorned with fine china and now we can start displaying these delicate homewares on our walls too. Melbourne-based design house Lightly create new treasures from old crockery and vintage glassware. These butterflies are individually cut from upcycled saucers, making each piece different from the next. I know what I will be adding to my Christmas wish list.
