Tea for Two - Giveaway Days are Here Again

This is a sticky post and will remain here on top until February 3.
Please scroll down for new content.

It's time for another one of Shannon's great Bloggy Giveaways. I had a great time giving away a few items for breastfeeding moms last time, and even won some adorable zipper pulls for my kids. I'm really excited to be a part of the fun again, and just wait until you see what I'm giving away this time - a gorgeous floral pattern porcelain tea set for two! Perfect for sharing a quiet moment with a friend or for pampering yourself when you need a quick pick me up.

The set includes two mugs, each with a removable strainer, two lids (for keeping that tea nice and hot while it steeps, or if you're anything like me for keeping it hot while you put another load into the washing machine, do the dishes, answer the phone and remind your children that jumping on the couch is not allowed...) and two porcelain spoons. Here, see for yourselves:



I don't know about you, but I feel more relaxed just looking at them.

To enter, leave me a comment telling me your favorite hot drink, and remember to leave me a way to contact you if you win. And while you're here, why don't you help yourself to a fresh cup of tea or coffee and take a look around.

This giveaway is international and open to everyone.

The winner will be chosen at random on Sunday, February 3.
