Today's Tea Time Tuesday finds me sharing a wee bit of Irish charm with you. I have various shamrock tea cups and saucers, and picked this adorable one to share with you today. The tea is from a tea shop in Ohio called Essencha Tea House. My brother and sister in-law love this tea shop and I was fortunate to go there once while visiting. This was a thoughtful gift from them for my birthday (not much remains as it is yummy).
I thought I would share a fun gift my husband made me this weekend from an old tea box. I blogged about it yesterday, but since it is sort of "tea related" I thought you may like to see it if you haven't already. I am just starting out collecting fountain pens, so he created a nice home for my pens from this lovely box. Isn't it charming?
I am sharing tea today at:

What a great use for a tea box. And what a great husband you have!
Hello Winnie,
I like your teacup with its spoon companion. The tea box makes a wonderful home for your fountain pen collection. Thank you for sharing and joining me for tea. Wishing you a delightful day and Happy Spring!
Blessings,

Hello Winnie!

Your teacup is sweet with the matching spoon! What a lovely idea for your fountain pen collection. I've not heard of someone who collects them but I imagine you would find some really interesting ones. I remember using a fountain pen in school until the ball point pens came out. They were messy but there's something nice about the nib scratching letters across paper. Thanks for visiting. Pamela
