Today's #marchmeetthemaker prompt is Small Detail, Today's #marchmeetthemaker prompt is Small Detail, which I am digging because those small spots of orange you see here in Fae Wine? They're marigold petals from the Call Me Sweetea "farm." I'm slowly beginning to integrate "in-house" grown ingredients into my blends and I'm so excited about this! It's an extra layer of assurance to make sure my ingredients are organic, ethically sourced and grown. Thus far, there have been several batches of tea made using CMS grown chamomile, cornflowers, sunflower petals, and rosemary. This summer (or maybe winter, as a new blend would work well for either season) will bring another new and exciting ingredient to the list. And I'm working on growing much more this year. Furthermore, did you know that I'm growing my own camilla sinensis, aka tea plants? I've got 6 already, with enough seeds to grow maybe 6 more, as well as an yerba matte tree. While it'll be several years before any of them are viable for proper tea harvesting, having my own tea farm and homegrown ingredients in my blends is something I don't talk about much here even though it's a detail I'm proud of and passionate about. πŸ«–πŸ«–πŸ«–πŸ«– Do you garden at all? If so, what are you growing this year? 😍 . . . . . #teagarden #smallfarm #cmsfarm #growyourownflowers #growyourownherbs #homegrownfood #greentealover #looseleaftea #fairytales #fae #faerie #eugeneoregon #teahouse #shopsmalllove #pnwmade #madeinoregon #womenownedbusinesses #shemeansbusiness #handmademovement #makerslife #smallbatchtea #smallbatches #callmesweetea #teadrinker #teaforlife #teagram #teaofinstagram #teamoment #tealoversofinstagram
Happy Friday, Sweeteas! Do any of you have excitin Happy Friday, Sweeteas! Do any of you have exciting plans this weekend? 😁 I'm being a bit cheeky today because the prompt for #marchmeetthemaker is newest make. My whole spring menu counts for newest make right? But I want to talk about this deliciousness right here, and if you can guess why I'm talking about this blend specifically in the comments I shall give you all the gold stars 😁 πŸ«–πŸ«–πŸ«– Every year I associate spring with Alice in Wonderland. The flowers and colors make the world feel whimsical and curious. So OF COURSE I had to include Very Merry Unbirthday in this menu! This is a green rooibos blend (aka, no caffeine!) with white chocolate and raspberry flavor, decadent and luxurious, perfect for night reading. I 100% created this blend with my guilty pleasures in mind 🀣 I LOVE ice cream, and HΓ€agen-Dazs's white chocolate raspberry is one of my favorite ways to pamper myself. If the Mad Hatter were handing out Unbirthday cakes I feel like it would be a white chocolate raspberry cheesecake. Thus, the flavor combination 😊 πŸ«–πŸ«–πŸ«– Tell me what you'll be up to this weekend, hazard a guess why I'm being cheeky with this feature, go check out other makers using the hashtag, and DON'T FORGET to shop the Spring Virtual Market today! You can check out @fallmarketpnw feed or my stories to see all the awesome shops involved πŸ’› . . . . #verymerryunbirthday #madhatterteaparty #disneylifestyle #disneylovers #callmesweetea #curiouserteatuesday #curiouserandcuriouser #readtheclassics #classicliterature #talesandtealeaves #bookishcommunity #bookishshop #looseleaftea #teaandseasons #teaphotography #teaoftheday #teaofinstagram #tealove #teastagram #teashop #tealicious #homeisacupoftea
Today is about beliefs and values for #marchmeetth Today is about beliefs and values for #marchmeetthemaker πŸ’› I'm passionate about quite a few things in regards to my business. πŸ«– Quality blends - I strive to create teas that you won't find for a couple bucks at the grocery store. My blends are freshly made in small batches by hand using quality, often organic and sometimes fair trade (when available) ingredients. πŸ«– Mental health - I have been diagnosed with PTSD, General Anxiety Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, and Borderline Personality Disorder. And I went without treatment or therapy for YEARS, knowing something was deeply wrong with my emotions and thoughts but unable to get help. I wouldn't wish that roller coaster on my worst enemy. That's a large part of why my Fair Family collection donates to White Bird Clinic, which is a local to me clinic that provides affordable, accessible mental health care (among many other services) to those who are low-income or homeless in my community. πŸ«– Financial freedom - Due to my mental disorders I have struggled in the standard working world. But a gal's gotta pay her bills, so I started this business in the hopes that I could thrive by doing my own thing (and hopefully encourage others along the way). πŸ«– Screw Hustle Culture - Sometimes, you just gotta take a break with a cuppa tea. Whether it's for myself or for you Sweeteas, I strive to create a space in my business for all of us to take a break or break up the routine to refresh and recharge ourselves. I don't always live up to this the way I want (just last night I was up til the wee hours working) but it's important to me that I take care of myself and that you take care of yourselves. None of us can thrive if we're too busy to survive. . Do any of these values resonate with you? πŸ“Έ by one of my Fair family members, @wildrosestudios541 featuring Yum Cookies and a Your Brain is Sexy mug, both of which donate to WBC . . . #callmesweetea #eugeneoregon #shopsmallbusinesses #shopsmalllove #supportsmallbusinessesowners #madeinoregon #womenownedbusinesses #shemeansbusiness #makerssupportingmakers #helloimhandmade #handmademovement #makerslife #handmade #smallbatch #teagram #teaofinstagram #calmversation #simpleandstill

You can join in at any time, do one week or all five. There is only one rule: tea MUST be one of the ingredients. Can be any kind of tea you want and used in any way you want, but it must be used in the recipe. Bonus house points if you tell us what kind of tea you use. 🧁🧁🧁🧁🧁 Save this post, because below are the category challenge weeks: πŸ«– March 8-14th - beverages (you MUST do something other than make a regular cuppa tea.

It's March 1st which means it's #marchmeetthemaker It's March 1st which means it's #marchmeetthemaker time! Today is Brand Introduction but I'm gonna double today with portrait because there are so many new faces around here. So hi! πŸ‘‹ I'm Dani and I'm the Head Tea Mistress of Call Me Sweetea. I opened Call Me Sweetea in August of 2019 out of curiosity, fun, and need. I had been watching other bookish tea blenders create delicious blends for years but kept coming up with my own ideas for blends and fandoms I wasn't finding anywhere else. I had been unemployed for a while when my partner, lovingly referred to as Mr Sweetea around here, decided to purchase a domain for me and took me to the herbal mercantile. "Do what you want with it," he said. And thus, I began playing around with mixing herbs and tea leaves. I do things a little different around here than other tea companies you might see in the world. For one, most of my blends are based on fandoms, bookish and tv/movie worlds. Secondly, the non-bookish teas are inspired by a festival held locally to me that has been life-changing for me. Which leads to number three: I care deeply about mental health, so the festival collection donates 15-30% of revenue to a local clinic's mental health initiatives. Last, my business isn't what you'll typically see in grocery stores. I have no factories and no employees right now other than me, which means I hand blend each and every bag of tea in my shop. I'm the one you talk to when you send DMs or comments, I'm the one creating the labels and sticking them onto bags, I'm the one packing your orders (though Mr helps sometimes), and I do it all with love and gratitude. My teashop wouldn't exist without you, so if I haven't "met" you yet please say hi and tell me a bit about yourself or how you found me in the comments 😊 and of course, feel free to ask questions! . . . #marchmeetthemaker2021 #meetthemaker #facebehindthebusiness #eugeneoregon #teahouse #shopsmallbusinesses #shopsmalllove #supportsmallbusinessesowners #pnwmade #madeinoregon #oregonmade #womenownedbusinesses #shemeansbusiness #makerssupportingmakers #helloimhandmade #handmademovement #makerslife #handmade #smallbatchtea #smallbatches #callmesweetea

Introducing a fresh look for Call Me Sweetea! The Introducing a fresh look for Call Me Sweetea! The incredibly talented @mommaslittlebooknook has been giving the shop a spring clean and making it all pretty and functional 😍 there are still a few things being tweaked but I couldn't wait any longer to reveal the updated website! What do you think? πŸ«–πŸ«–πŸ«–πŸ«– Speaking of spring cleaning, y'all I need to clean my personal tea area in a bad way πŸ™ˆ I have so many bags spilling out of their designated container onto the table and migrating up to multiple shelves. It's a hot mess. I'm clearly not drinking enough tea! 🀣 What's something you're hoping to spring clean this year? (Also, 1000% going to clean my office space. Again 😢) . . . . #teashop #teaoftheday #teaphotography #drinkmoretea #teaplease #teatimeβ˜•οΈ #springclean #freshlook #callmesweetea #booksandtea #teaislife #teaofinstagram
Happy #teatuesday Sweeteas! I saw an interesting m Happy #teatuesday Sweeteas! I saw an interesting mental health check the other day (and can't for the life of me remember where...πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ) and I'd love to explore it with you! πŸ«– What is one good thing that happened last week? And what is one thing that really sucked? πŸ«– So often we're encouraged to focus heavily on the positive to the point of cancelling out anything negative. In some cases, the encouragement goes so far as to guilt people if they feel anything negative at all. But what makes joy so joyful is the contrasts. We're able to experience joy, happiness, and peace because we know what means to feel depressed, angry, apathetic, and angsty. If we refuse to acknowledge the bad things in our lives it makes it so much harder to recognize the profound goodness we experience. πŸ«– So for me: I had many good things happen last week but I think the goodest of good things was hiking with Mr. Sweetea. We love hiking but haven't gone nearly as much this past year. And the suckiest part of last week was enduring several days of migraines πŸ˜“ Honestly, just looking at those two statements, side by side, makes it easy for me to see which will hold the longest lasting memories and value to me (hiking!). I may try this more often, especially when I need a new perspective during tough times. πŸ«– Speaking of hiking with Mr. Sweetea, today's photo of the romantic blend Meet Cute is brought to you by @dynamoduo_ πŸ’› they have THE MOST STUNNING jewelry, y'all! 😍 The Fair child in me wants ALL the pieces for festivals! . . . . #teaphotography #mentalhealthwarrior #mentalhealthadvocate #meetcute #ireadromance #romancereader #romancereadersofinstagram #romcom #looseleaftea #teaofinstagram #teaoftheday #chocolatestrawberries #teaplease #teatimeβ˜•οΈ #tealovers #drinktea #callmesweetea
🍡 SHOP ANNOUNCEMENTS TIME! 🍡 Quite a few thi 🍡 SHOP ANNOUNCEMENTS TIME! 🍡 Quite a few things are going on in preparation for spring here at Call Me Sweetea. So grab a cuppa and let's catch up a little bit. πŸ«– Firstly, if you've been considering applying for the #cmsspringsquad2021 please do so soon! The search ends this Saturday the 20th at 11:59pm PST. Details on how to apply can be found a few posts back. The spring squad will get to help launch the spring and summer menu (even help develop the summer menu a bit) so now is a great time to be an ambassador! πŸ«– Secondly, spring will bring some changes to the shop. The website will be getting some fresh new features that'll make shopping easier (yaaaaaaas πŸ™ŒπŸ‘) thanks to the hard work of @mommaslittlebooknook πŸ’› There will also be some price increases coming when the spring menu launches. Not all blends will see a price increase but probably around 80% will. I'm not fond of doing this but unfortunately the pandemic's effect on everything from shipping to ingredient supplies will last for a while. In order to keep bringing you the delicious teas we all love I have to adjust my pricing. That said, if you want to stock up on anything at the current prices while you still can (or before they leave the shop for the season) I recommend you get shopping πŸ˜‰ prices will change on March 1st. πŸ«– Last, but absolutely not least, THE SPRING MENU RELEASE! As of right now, I am mostly on track to release spring blends starting March 1st. My school schedule looks like it'll allow it too so get ready! There are so many good blends coming, especially if you're fans of Alice in Wonderland, the Grishaverse, Star Wars, the Raven Cycle, and Lucky Charms cereal πŸ˜‹ πŸ«– That's all for now from me. What about you? What's something fun you did this weekend? Lovely photo by the lovely @ofpagesandpinecones . . . . . #teaphotography #teatimeβ˜•οΈ #teaofinstagram #teaoftheday #callmesweetea #booksandtea #bookishshop #bookishcommunity #bookishlife #teaislife #teashop #madeinoregon #womenownedbusiness #shopsmalllove #grishaverse #reylotrash #theravencycle
What are your favorite magical beings? Booksta tal What are your favorite magical beings? Booksta talks a lot about magical creatures but what about the sirens, mermaids, dryads, fairies, and more? Which are your favorite and what books feature them? πŸ«–πŸ«–πŸ«– I have been in a reading and tv SLUMP lately. Nothing was sticking (except I'm Sorry on Netflix but I finished and they cancelled season 3 😭😭😭) and I was getting super stressed because I felt like I had nothing to help me relax. Enter Fate on Netflix and A Song Below Water (via audiobook, which I usually can't do) πŸ™ŒπŸ™ŒπŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ With Fate, we've got a story about fairies that feels like like Shadowhunters (I mean, Bloom and Clary are both from the mortal world, both redheads, both had no clue of their powers...). With A Song Below Water, we've got a DEEP story about sirens and sprites and race (and ren faires!). I am not normally a YA person but both of these storylines have me HOOKED and I'm loving it! And I'm sipping some peachy spearmint Fairy Dust as I'm reading and watching, naturally. It's such a lovely, calming tea given all the drama in these stories! πŸ«–πŸ«–πŸ«– Have you read A Song Below Water? Or watched Fate? No spoilers please, but what did you think? As far as my magical beings preference goes, I've always been interested in naiads. I'm a total Pisces, I looooove the water, and naiads seem to speak to something in my soul. πŸ«–πŸ«–πŸ«– Random side note, y'all. 😢 I'm gonna have to get used to setting up photos to take through my phone again. I've forgotten how after having to use my camera for so long πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ is it just me or is composing photos for a camera different than composing for a phone? . . . #booksandtea #fairydust #herbaltea #looseleaftea #audiobook #ireadya #fatethewinxsaga #teaphotography #teasofinstagram #teaoftheday #booksofinsta #igreaders #bookishlife #bookishshop #bookishmerch #bookloversofinstagram #teatime🍡 #teaislife #tealove #bookishcommunity #readersofig #teashop #callmesweetea
