A tea gift from afar!

The most wonderful surprise package was waiting in my mailbox when I got home from my trip this weekend, and inside was all this!

Jenn in Massachusetts tells me these lovely items jumped into her basket at Michaels the other day just begging to be sent south, and I am not about to argue with her! Aren't these teacup notecards pretty? How absolutely perfect for fall thank-you notes!

There was also this small notebook, which I will enjoy using for note-taking this fall. I am just a tad obsessive about writing down ideas and keep two to three different mini-notebooks in my purse at all times for particular writing projects. I can never have too many of these!

This magnetic notepad will be great to hang on my refrigerator this fall and is most welcome since the notepads currently on the fridge are looking a little tired.

Last but not least, this great weekly planner and shopping list is magnetic as well and I can think of quite a few uses for it. I'm so glad Jenn thought of me when she saw all these goodies, because I have been haunting my local Michaels but as of a week ago had not found anything tea-ish, much less these great goodies. Perhaps they've made it to your neck of the woods? If so, you might want to pay Michaels a visit! (And thanks again, Jenn!)

  1. Why do I always get the urge to go shopping after reading some of your blog posts? You (and your readers) find some of the most fun tea things! I need to get out of the kitchen more!

  6. Hello Angela, I concur with all the writers today - you do find the neatest, one-of-a-kind items that I just love and must go out and find...the art work on those tea cups is beautiful!

    Thanks for sharing, Joanie

  7. What a thoughtful gift! I've been to my local Michaels recently and they did not have anything tea related.
