Bee Tea

This is a post I am re-posting from last year.  My lavender is blooming and this sweet pottery has been a favorite find of mine.  I have received many hits on this post.  The artist, Deb Mores,  that created the pottery found my post and has left a comment.  This pottery now is on my kitchen cabinets and I love to stop and admire it.  It is such a cute tea  set.  This post last posted on 8/30/10.

 I am usually not very lucky at Goodwill.  I really don't bother going because I never find anything, but this week I did.  I found this tea set by Deb Mores.  The pattern is Buzz Buzz.  It was made in 1999. 

The tea pot and sugar are shaped like a straw bee hive.  The are bees buzzing all about.  Lavender is blooming all around to keep the little bees happy.

 
A bee perched on the tea pot  lid.  There is also a bee on the sugar lid.
 
As luck would have it, my lavender just bloomed a second time so I picked a bunch for my tea.

I also have found a lovely little tea towel made of cotton and linen that has been hand embroidered with little bees.
 




I was really pleased with the find.  I got a large platter, 4 dinner plates, a pitcher, and this tea set for $12.75.  The tea mug is from my Corelle Country Cottage.  It just about matches the color of the lavender on the tea pot and accessories.  
Thanks for joining me for a late summer tea...buzz.....buzz
