Tea Themed Christmas Ornament Giveaway!

Most tea themed Christmas ornaments that I have seen picture tea pots or tea cups.  I decided to craft one that features actual tea.  This small stoppered bottle holds dry tea leaves and a dangling tea pot charm.  Oh so cute!  If you would like one of these ornaments of your own, leave a comment here by noon on Monday, December 11 (US EST).  I will draw a winner at random from the names that are submitted. And I will pop this charming Christmas tea ornament in the holiday mail to that winner.
***THIS GIVEAWAY HAS NOW CLOSED. *** I will announce the winner in a moment.

Book Giveaway Winner!

And the winner of Monday's book giveaway is Geoff!  Thanks to all who participated in the drawing!

Giveaway Tea History Book: For All the Tea in China

Hello!  I was tidying the shelves of my tea library this weekend, and discovered that I have two copies of this book: For All the Tea in China: How England Stole the World's Favorite Drink and Changed History (2010) by Sarah Rose.

If you would like to win this duplicate copy of the book, leave a comment on this blog post by Friday 4/28/17 at noon.  I will do a random drawing of names from those who have left comments.

For one of many write-ups about this book, take a look at this 2010 review from The Washington Post.
