Hi everyone, its Tea for Two blog hop day!
Pop over to their lovely blogs and see what gorgeous creations these ladies make, you won't be disappointed!
I have posted a list of blogs at the end of this post so that you can see what everyone else has made for the blog hop, I am sure there will be some gorgeous creations for you to see.
I decided to make a tea box to hold my tea bags with a tea cosy to match, it is very small, just big enough for a delicate small teapot. I was inspired to make the tea cosy after seeing the gorgeous ones made by Jenny of Elephantz, she hand quilted one recently, it looked so lovely I thought I would give it a try.
( Jenny is joining in the blog hop, you can see the link below)
I made the gift tags using Photoshop Elements, my favourite software!
I love anything to do with afternoon tea, there is nothing like sitting down at a table that has white crisp table cloths, a lovely tea pot covered with a gorgeous tea cosy and lovely china tea cups. No there is not a feeling like it.

I really enjoyed my visit and love your projects. A little box for your tea is a great idea. Your tea cozy is really sweet, I have been wanting to make one since I saw Jenny's post. I am off to see the other creations. Thanks for sharing.
Your creations are so sweet. Did you actually make the box, too? Maybe you should share how you made that cording - it's gorgeous. Your stitching is lovely and using it on the tea box was wonderful. Soon that box will have a soothing smell of tea, too. Hmmmm...lovely.
