anyone in the mood for tea...?

To skip forward a little, the main focus of my second year was spent on a little project called Little Ginger's Tea Shop. A wonderful project with four beautiful girls. Nikki Strange, Maria Laffafian, Rachael Palmer and Kirsty Birtley. We were put into groups based on our strengths and weaknesses, and being the only fashion student with four textiles students, instead of creating a collection of clothing, we decided to head down the kitchenware route. We set up a business, which we had to pitch to the university and create and made products to sell, our beautiful products are shown below, our range included, table runners, placemats, napkins and napkin rings. We were very successful in selling all of our products and we had a lot of interest from local business who wanted to stock our products (they just sold out too fast!)
