Wee finds: Mr PS tea towels

Fancy a brew tea towel, US$16, from Mr PS’s Etsy shop.

How cool are these screen-printed tea-towels by British designer Megan Price? Her Mr PS range is inspired by vintage signage from classic British caffs and seaside resorts.

One lump or two tea towel, and Full English Breakfast Tea Towel, both US$16, from Mr PS’s Etsy shop.

They actually remind me of some signs that caught my eye when when I was on holiday in Cornwall last year. These were taken in the fishing village of Polperro:

    Love the Top Tea Sets thread. As a busy Londoner I was suffering serious gift anxiety until your piece on the Hidden Art Shop. Just bought two Tina Tsang tea cups… you push the rest off their perch, top birdy x

    I recognize those signs. I’ve been to polperro many a time – not much to do there though other than eat lots of lovely cream teas!

    Delicious Industries – I loved it when I was 10 years old, so revisted last year. Don’t forget the Cornish pasties! xx
    Megan – So glad you found me! The TEA CRAB sign is just wonderful.
    Gemma – Yep, you’re pretty much spot on, as always Miss G.
