Do you have some good tea gift ideas? Perhaps tea gifts you would like to receive this year? What has been a delightful gift you have been happy to receive? Let me know in the comments!
I have gone completely modern. A couple years ago I obtained a Keurig coffee maker and started selecting coffee k-cups or pods. As tea k-cups became more available, I tried them, thinking they would not come up to the loose tea that I made. I am in my 80s, so the combination of convenience and excellent product sold me on this new brewing method. I have given two Keurigs away already, one going to a friend in an assisted-living situation, who had a stroke and is paralyzed on one side. It is so easy to use, and if one donates sackfuls of assorted k-cups, it lessens the future expense for the person. Right now, the cost is the main thing, and I hope it becomes more reasonable in time, but we tea lovers want our tea no matter how it is presented.
I'd like to add (a not so stocking sized) idea: If you have some extra teacups (say you bought a set from an antique store, but just don't use them all), put 3 or 4 of your favorite teabags in the cup & carefully wrap it (w/ the saucer, of course) in cellophane. There you have a quick and easy gift for: your child's teacher, someone at church who has been sick, a neighbor or friend you've "just been thinking about", or an anonymous gift on a coworkers' desk.
I need a tea strainer. I keep putting one on my shopping list but forget to look at it when I'm shopping. 🙃They're also useful for dusting cakes with icing (confectioners) sugar. Talking of sugar. A sugar bowl or some sugar tongs would make a nice gift. 😁 Those spout cleaners are known as bottle brushes over here. Useful for lots of other things too.

I love the idea of a spout cleaner. Spoons are always a safe bet bc ppl can use them for whatever suits them. Great list.
❤LOVE all your gift ideas! I have ordered some for myself. Love everything about Afternoon Tea! Enjoy your channel...💕
Nice ideas 💡
Oh my goodness, thank you! this is going to help so much this year :)
I so enjoy your Sunday morning "visits." 😊 Thank you for never disappointing. I love all of your ideas.
I love my old fashioned tea cosy; it would be a great nostalgic and useful gift that is lovely on the tea table.
@@DScott-uq4qy yes, they are so sweet, aren’t they? 😊✨

Oh what a lovely idea! I really like that - and it's great to recycle these beautiful things. ☺🌟

All are very good ideas. Thank you for sharing. ❤
I put a few tea bag samples in each of my Christmas 🎁 cards. This was a winner at work when coworkers found them in their mailbox 📬.
@@gabrielleangelica1977 great idea!
