I will be attending a fund-raiser in March for a local hospice. It is an afternoon tea-party. A group of us have reserved a table. I would like to make little favors/gifts for everyone at our table (8) and want them to be 'tea' themed and something they will keep.
Our table theme will probably be Victorian, so any ideas?
I can sew, knit, crochet, stamp and am open to any and all ideas!

You could always make some "tussie mussies" . (They are cones you make and decorate) . You could decorate them with little teapots and laces and fill with spice tea bags

If you could find eight nice teapoons , tie a pretty ribbon around them and attach a tea bag.

How about making "bath tea" Sew little tea bags and fill with bath salts and herbs. Hand them on the tub to "steep" while you take your bath!

If you crochet...you could crochet a doily and then starch it and place it around a teacup and saucer that you like....
When it hardens you will have a crochet teacup. My mother gave me one of these when I visited a couple of months ago, and it is absolutely darling.
Some great ideas already listed.

Thank-you girls!
