Women's Society Craft Meet

I often go to The Olde Young Tea House, for a random tea and some cake!



China Rose Petals and Dime Bar Cake

I have tried their oreo cake, dime bar cake and chocolate caramel cake. They are all amazing! I was kindly invited to their young women's society craft meet, even though I'm not officially part of them! So I packed up my knitting and a few sewing essentials and went, not really knowing what to expect.


I was really flattered and had a great time! It was fun meeting new people and crafting! They were so creative and there were loads of different personalities. I need more practise socialising so it was time well spent :3


I tried making bunting, it was my first time! Other people decorated jam jars and painted on tea towels. they looked amazing. I think I will buy one, but I'm quite strapped of cash :( My random tea was Japanese Cherry Leaves. I hope to join their society soon :) How do you meet new people? I think through friends and Lolita meets for me...

I meet new people through art classes, church, and of course, school. While reading your post, it made me smile because some of the phrases you used are so British! I find it so cute! ^^

Awe, I'd love to have some cake right now! Yum! And tea :p.

Congrats on having joined them for the meet! I have trouble socializing, too :/. That's why I started volunteering at the library. since I'm not legally able to apply for a job, I thought I might as well volunteer to at least socialize a bit.

Have a nie day! :D
