While the Advent Calendar will be on most of our wishlists, there are several new collections hitting the shelves this week and into November. Choose from winter collections, brunch specials and more. If you missed it, I already posted a sneak peek of the mugs here with the teas that will hit the shelves on November 1st along with most of these sets!
I have put the teas in spoiler tags in case you just want to see the pretty packaging but be surprised by the teas inside. Simply click on the + in the spoiler areas to read what teas are included in each collection.
