The beekeeper tea cosy looks a bit like a bygone age. She has her smoker, with smoke coming out of the nozzle, and a skep to catch a new swarm of bees. There are eight honeybees buzzing about her. And each bee has a slight fluffiness to it’s abdomen.

Her hat is removable and the netting on the front of the hat can either be down or rolled up to reveal her face. Under her hat she has shoulder length curly hair.

It’s such a fresh and summery tea cosy. It would look perfect in a beekeepers kitchen of having tea alfresco.

I’ll bee there for a hot cup of tea on a moment Honey!
