On this "Sweetest" of days, I just have to share one of my most treasured possessions.
(It was a gift from my very first and dear children's book publishing client!)
My "Winter Story" Brambly Hedge tea cup & saucer! Have you ever heard of Brambly Hedge?
Oh my, I hope so! =0)
The official site is filled with delightful information, if you'd like to take a visit.
This tea cup set is based on a series of children's books, created by Jill Barklem, which involve
VERY endearing little mice characters who dwell in a wonderful little community in the forest called Brambly Hedge. They have picnics and adventures and - - - Oh, you just have to take a visit there!
Years ago, I bought four books which were each based on a season, and read them over and over to my children ~ and myself!! The illustrations are just amazing, intricately beautiful and so inviting.
I found this fun blog, of a preschool mom who just discovered this enchanting little world of characters! Hope you have a chance to visit and enjoy!
Here is an example of one of the sweet characters you'll meet in the books;
Mrs Crustybread, who is the Cook at Old Oak Palace. She prepares beautiful cakes for all the celebrations of Brambly Hedge.

I love this cup! I love that you use it!
Thank YOU for your sweet comment ~
And isn't it just possible that tea or coffee
tastes so much better in a favorite cup?
I think so! =0)
