Good Housekeeping Award Winning Christmas Cheer

James Bain

We are absolutely delighted, and perhaps a little giddy, to announce that our beloved Coffee & Serenity Hamper has been awarded the prestigious Good Housekeeping seal!

A vintage china teacup and saucer set with a delicate green leaf pattern and gold trim, sits on a white tablecloth, bathed in a single spotlight. A silver spoon rests in the saucer. In the background, other out-of-focus teacups and plates are visible.

Why Buy Vintage? A Journey Through Time

James Bain

At Bluebells & Thyme, we believe that the most meaningful gifts are the ones that tell a story. Buying Vintage is about connecting with a bygone era, preserving a piece of history, and celebrating the unique charm that only comes with age. If you've ever wondered why vintage items hold such a special place in our hearts, here’s the Bluebells and Thyme guide to their enduring appeal.

At Bluebells & Thyme, we believe that beautiful things shouldn't be locked away in cupboards, reserved only for special occasions. This is especially true for the vintage china that comes in our unique hampers, those delicate pieces that whisper stories of the past and add a touch of timeless elegance to any setting.

Hello World!

Dianne Bain

Welcome to Bluebells & Thyme! My name is Dianne, and I'm thrilled to share the story behind Bluebells & Thyme – a story woven from a lifelong love of vintage charm and a deep passion for the vibrant artisan scene of Wales.

I have always had a passion for the past, history, the timeless stories that live forever. Bluebells & Thyme started with a teacup.
