Shopping..

If you are getting married and are looking for something a little different to celebrate the “blooming” of your love, you can’t go past Blooming teas – these are divine little balls that you steep in hot water – and int he process they “bloom” for you under water, becoming a really cute minature bouquet.

Until the end of June there is a 20% sale on all of the favors available!  I have pictured the “trinket” favor, available in pink or blue and comes with an individual gift bag.  The little box contains 1 bloom of your choice.  Heart shaped boxes are available in red and white,  and little cube boxes come complete with little handles.  For something very different there are also little “take out” favor boxes in the shape of and asian take away food box.

The prices are great, coming in at $4 each if you order more than 25. 

Some of my favorite blooms are the “good fortune” bloom and the “heavenly” bloom – both are made of Silver Needle White Tea leaves, which are of the finest quality being harvested during the Spring before the buds open to preserve tenderness.

SO for any special occasion, you really can’t go past these cute and unusual wedding favors!

With so many types of digital cameras on the market, choosing the right one for you can be challenging.  If you take a lot of pictures of family you can choose a less expensive digital camera while if you plan on taking more professional looking pictures a more expensive camera may be needed. 

Price is the number one consideration people use when selecting a digital camera.  You can find many good digital cameras at around $100 while there are many digital cameras that cost well over $1,000.  Knowing what you can afford can help you narrow down your choices.  If you only plan to use your camera occasionally you will probably want to purchase a less expensive digital camera model.  On the other hand, if you will be using the camera professionally or you are an amateur photographer who will be using the camera frequently, you may want to spend more money on the camera you will buy.
