1. Get a little teapot
Teapots have certainly made a come-back this season! Although originally a vital kitchen essential, teapots have now become a fashionable accessory which are perfect for adding a sense of character to your kitchen. Pretty floral decorations give this British utensil a cute country feel, or bold colours and polka-dot patterns  offer a more retro teapot look.

2. Love bunting!
Bunting is a cute and easy way to add a vintage touch to any room in your house. You can buy sweet cotton bunting from a range of stores, or even make your own from old tea-towels or t-shirts. Bunting wall stickers also offer a more durable alternative to this fun home decoration.

3. Make the most of charity shops
Full of vintage goods, charity shops are a great place to pick up some authentic vintage pieces. Second-hand tea cups and saucers make sweet decorative candle-holders, or you can use retro photo frames and old-school accessories to give a more classic look. If you’re not a fan of pre-loved items, then check out this vintage-style china tea set – it’s the same sweet vintage look, but brand new!

4. Refresh your tableware

Update your tableware for an easy way to revamp the feel of your kitchen. Pick pretty floral prints to give mealtime a 50s country feel or channel an 80s vibe with geometric patterns and earthy colours.

5. Choose retro-inspired utensils
Statement retro-inspired utensils are great for bringing a stylish yet practical touch of the vintage trend to your kitchen. From 50s style kitchen appliances to modern blenders in retro shades, swapping a contemporary utensil for a vintage-styled item is an easy way to breathe a classic chicness into your home whilst still keeping your style practical.

6. Showcase your style with cake stands
Thanks to popular shows like The Great British Bake Off, floral decorated cake stands are becoming increasingly popular. These elaborately decorated stands are great for creating a sweet afternoon tea style and showcasing some of your tasty bakes to your friends and family. If you’re not a star baker, then you can use your cake stand as a stylish display for your kitchen herbs, or simply use it as a decorative table feature.
