A new teapot keychain

When thatteafreak recently shared the cutest teapot keychain on her Instagram account, I ran to my local Dollarama to find one.

 

This adorable mini teapot keychain ($3.25 CAD) is similar to the cu-teas plushies that I rescued at Dollarama earlier this year.

 

It makes me smile every time I see the adorable teapot keychain hanging on my purse!

A new blanket for fall

I'm a huge fan of the TV show, Gilmore Girls, so I've been keeping an eye out for their plush blankets at the TJ Max stores since last year. I was beyond thrilled when I finally found a Gilmore Girls blanket at Winners several weeks ago!

 

 
The blanket is super soft and and big enough to cover a loveseat.
 
 
Lorelai and Rory Gilmore were huge coffee drinkers. But I'm going to pretend these are teacups.


Black teacups for the fall
 
 Have you started decorating for the cozy fall season?

Tyrrell Tea by Tea...Indeed

 Hello, September!

 

 
 
Last month, my friend visited Drumheller, Alberta and brought me back Tea...Indeed's "Tyrrell Tea", a black tea blend inspired by the Royal Tyrrell Museum which features one of the world's largest collections of dinosaurs. 
 
It's a tasty Earl Grey blend with hibiscus flowers. Of course, I had to drink it in my handmade "Tea-Rex" mug!

 

I visited the Royal Tyrrell Museum in 2014.
 

 

"Black Beauty" was one of the best preserved Tyrannosaurus Rex skulls every found.

Come Shop with Me at HomeSense: Summer Edition

I spotted some fun tea-themed items at HomeSense (aka HomeGoods) recently.


These elegant white with gold trim dishes would be perfect for a shabby chic tearoom.
 
 
 
This artwork would also be perfect for a tearoom.
  
 
 
This mini Blooming Tea Garden is too cute!
