Kiwiantiques Rooster Party


I'm pleased to be joining in Bella Vista's Rooster blog party. This is my first ever attempt at a tablescape photoshoot.

I thought it only fair rooster's from New Zealand were represented.


The figural rooster & hen china is Royal Winton Chanticleer. The passion for this china started with my mother's teapot, you see at the rear of this photo.

I've added many friends over the years.


And a few wee pins too!






The tiles are made right here in New Zealand in the town of Waipu by The Waipu Tile Company



I bought this wee 1930's gem on ebay.



And what's hiding under here?

Cookies!

Handpainted cookies are made by the highly talented Lisa Hansen of The Whole Cake & Caboodle
