![What's not to love about a good tea station. The nook in your home with cups and tea to spare for those, almost ritual, afternoon sips. Dih sha time is a must!
Also a little tip we had to personalize our space is using our Khasi Tea Stall stickers to beautifully repurpose old tea tins. What do you think?✨️
Is this your sign to create your own little tea corner....
Me thinks yesss...
Happy tea time! ☕️🌼🫖
And for anyone interested, we have very few sticker sets still in stock. DM to let us know.

![Didn't think it was going to happen this year. But here we are. I am back to Candour On Canvas 🌼
I was away for a good part of the year, tending to my family and caretaking.
Hard as it was, it has made me more grateful for time.
For tender, ordinary moments that make a simple life a joyful one.
And after much of a year away from home, how humbling it is for me to return to it.
Nothing beats the feeling of coming back to a cottage, to quiet peaceful mornings...and back to a creative life that has been waiting for me.
All rare as ever.
