Interested in tea leaf reading?

Hello, everyone, and thank you for supporting "It's All Ephemera"!

You can't read tea leaves without tea, so tasseomancers tend to become tea-lovers, and that means sampling many types of tea. You can't buy tea without a tea company to grow it and importers to blend and pack it. And the tea companies can't tell you how wonderful their tea is without promotional material. Back in the early 20th century, at the height of the proliferation of grocery distributors, every tea company handed out brochures and booklets to magnify the glory of their products, and since this era was also the height of graphic art and design, the tea company booklets were works of stupendous artistry. This week we present a sneak peek at a wonderfully illustrated gallery of antique and vintage tea company booklets. Tea leaf reading is one of the Mystic Arts -- but as a reader, i always put the emphasis firmly on Art. These lovely graphics will be on display at the Mystic Tea Room web site for everyone to enjoy in May of 2026, but my dear Patrons will have access to it for one full year before the public does, in gratitude for their financial support.

[PATRONS GET THE SECRET URL IN EMAIL ONE YEAR BEFORE IT OPENS TO THE PUBLIC]

The Mystic Tea Room web site is dedicated to the traditional art of fortune telling by tea leaves, also known as tea leaf reading, cup reading, cup tossing, divination by tea leaves, tasseomancy, and tasseography. If you are not yet familiar with the public portion of the site, check it out!

Beaches are best in winter. No tourists and dogs are welcome. This is Belle's 1st trip to the surfer's beach she was so excited she didn't know which way to go first.

FRIDAY NIGHT FLEA with WNOM!
We're super-excited to be joining forces with Providence Flea for the upcoming Friday Night Halloween Flea on October 29 from 5-9pm! We're brewing up some Halloween magic to bring our special touch to the evening, so mark your calendars and stay tuned for a really fun night! There will be a lighted labyrinth, an ancestral altar, a Witches' Way & Readers' Row - on top of all of the fantastic vendors, food trucks, and more!

No admission tickets necessary--shop the Flea free and park at the Flea free in two off-street lots. (Sorry, no dogs allowed inside the market hall per Health Department rules!)
