You know a naked tea pot is just not good. Your tea will get cold, for one, and you'll also miss out on the cute Nanna-ness that is a tea cosy. Or tea cozy. Depending on where you stand. I'm cosy here. Are you cozy?
As an aside :: I wrote a guest post for this blog! I think it's nice to write guest posts. In the next twelve months I'm going to write on some blogs with smaller readerships than mine. Because there are people out there doing GOOD stuff that you might not know about! And I would like to share my readers with those kinda peeps. That blog also has a store with the most amazing vintage fabric in it. Go see. Maybe you could use some for a TEA COSY?!
