We had fun collecting the crockery from antique shops and fairs and charity shops and I keep a book of what we have, what we spent and what we have made from hiring it.<\/p>\n<p>We now have enough crockery to cater for up to a hundred and forty and in a year it has paid for itself so from now on we are in profit. It is never going to make a huge amount but anything it does make is a bonus and we enjoy hiring it out.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday we did a small hire of the vintage crockery and were asked if we had any festive crockery. I said that we had one trio which my eldest son Steve and his wife gave me as one of my Christmas gifts last year. I said we would include it in the hire and was quite pleased to give it an outing.<\/p>\n<p>Today after I had collected back the crockery and washed it up I decided that the festive trio should be included in my Christmas decorations.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9836\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/festive_vintage_crockery_incorporated_Into_my_christmas_decorations.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9836\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9836\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/festive_vintage_crockery_incorporated_Into_my_christmas_decorations.jpg\" alt=\"Festive vintage trio incorporated into my Christmas decorations\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-9836\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Festive vintage trio incorporated into my Christmas decorations<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_9837\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/fastive_trio.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9837\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9837\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/fastive_trio.jpg\" alt=\"My festive trio\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-9837\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">My festive trio filled with baubles<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I felt quite pleased that we can enjoy this gift over the Christmas period and that it has had an outing too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just over a year ago we decided to add a vintage crockery hire to our catering business.
