COVETED: Tea party, party of two

Collectors of pretty things, take note: Every Friday Monday, we're rounding up a what's-what of what we [heart], culled from the scores of design blogs, artist sites and Etsy treasuries we stalk on the regular. We here at Coveted HQ are in our 20s, which means we're smack-dab in the middle of the longest season of our lives: wedding season. We've gone to a dozen weddings in the past three years, and our friends are showing no signs of stopping with the love-and-marriage stuff. If you're like us (broke) and don't want to completely cheese off your loved ones, pick something small (both in price and size) from the registry du jour, and wrap it up all nice with one of these pretty tea towels. Less waste, more gift; less money, more thought. Works every time. Here's the nitty-gritty on some of our favorites, from left to right: - The Heated Teacup in Raspberry, $11, The Heated on Etsy - Fern Tea Towel, $18, Madder Root on Cosa Verde, h/t Modish - Gourmet Flour Sack Towel, $14, The House of Bouton on Etsy PREVIOUSLY >> COVETED: Reinventing the wheel
