Not on the high street
Long live the doily!!!
Darlings, do you do doilies??
At Chez Lee we do, if one is having afternoon tea or a tea party then a lacy flourish will add a touch of twee.
I am loving this tile too from Rockett st.George.
also in cool black
If a tile is too permanent ( use as a pot stand or coaster) than the framed print option is the way to go.
again from Rockett.
I will buy one, the designer’s husband had these words engraved inside her wedding ring. Very poetic!!
The best is yet to come, the biggest doily delights yet. I really need these decals for the kitchen floor. Just wish the kitchen was bigger to show them off to their best advantage. Fabulous.

Scones
- 300g plain flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 75g unsalted butter (at cool room temperature), cubed
- 50g caster sugar
- 1 egg
- 120ml double cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- Milk, for glazing
Tip:
The standard River Cottage recipe uses 50g of sugar but if you’d prefer a sweeter scone use between 75g – 100g. Either way, they’ll taste delicious.
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/gas 6 and lightly grease a baking sheet
2. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Add the butter and rub in with your fingers until the mix resembles fine breadcrumbs. Alternatively, do this in a food processor before transferring the mixture to a bowl. Either way, then stir in the sugar.
3. Beat the egg and cream together, with the vanilla extract too, if you’re using it. Pour into the flour mixture and bring together lightly with your hands into a dough. Turn out on to a lightly floured surface and knead very briefly to form a fairly smooth ball
4. Pat or gently roll the dough out to a thickness of about 4cm. Use a 6-7cm diameter cutter to stamp out scones from the dough. Put them on the prepared baking sheet, brush the tops with a little milk, and bake for about 15 minutes until risen and golden. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for a few minutes, then serve slightly warm. Scones do not keep well so eat them up quickly!
