Do you have a few friends you like to give a little something special to? I made up these , little
tea cups or sugar bowls with a vintage looking ornament, mini cookies and a tea bag as a thoughtful touch. I am still working on a few more...but for now, this is what i have come up with.
A few vintage finds or you could do thrift shop tea cups...or use the instant coffee packets, or
hot chocolate. I am thinking of making a few for my daughters' teachers. I can see there is a lot
of variety, fudge and cocoa or the wedding cake cookies..would be a nice touch...snow ball look a likes.
Last year i did mini bowls, with soup, cocoa tea and/or coffee pkgs(think General Foods International ones) then added elements for the person i was giving, mints, chocolate or the honey sticks, the crystal sugar candy, a gift card to Starbucks would be a nice touch or chocolate coffee beans....it is a fun gift to make/give with endless possibilities.
Well, off to the mail and thrift shop, again....I need a few more unique containers.
It is the thought, that counts! (oops see at broken cookie; i will fix it)

My son wants a soup one, Miso, also thought about adding fresh herbs....He is into sushi, i could add nori and wasabi, pickled ginger, etc.
My daughter wants a chocolate one, cocoa, mini marshmallows, peppermints to add...endless possibilities, here.
I would love to have a casserole dish that matched, i think this is from the 40-50's era? I bet it is gorgeous, i have several tea cups...i can part with 1 for a special friend.
Thanks!!
