Scones. Check.  Tea (yes! Real loose black tea straight off the plane from London! Thanks AP!). Check.  Pearls. Check

The Royal Wedding is almost upon us. That means in 2 days I’ll need to belt up before I come across as bloody barmy. *Sigh* The Brits have such great slang words. Codswallop.  Kip. Nowt. Owt.

That’s enough now. Today I want to share my top nine Union Jack products on Etsy. Some of them are pretty smart. Sorry, I had to throw one more in there.

1. This burlap pillow, while cute, I can’t imagine would be too comfy. Regardless, I like the stamped lettering. You should put this pillow on one of those chairs that you never sit in. Everyone has that chair, right?

2. I would use these notecards when I was writing my BFF Kate Middleton. I know she would love them.

3. These mittens, while not as cute as the Kate&Wills gloves I found earlier, look warm.

4. I love these cufflinks. I wonder if I could sneak them into my husband’s collection…

5. This collage is interesting. I like that it’s been done on a blonde wood and the subtle patterns of the fabric-reminiscent patterns.

6. What a fun quilt! I like that this is a distant echo from the Union Jack flag. I would actually prefer something like this that’s not quite so “UNION JACK”! The colors are soft and more welcoming than the traditional colors.

7. This weathered dresser would be a unique piece in any bedroom or hallway. Miss Mustard Seed has an awesome tutorial on her blog about how to make a dresser like this.

8. I would use THIS card for when I was writing thank you notes to my BFF’s hubby, Wills, to thank him for inviting us hunting at Clarence House.

9. This clutch is very summery. I wonder if I could make something like this… maybe that will be a post in the future.

Don’t forget mates. 5AM! At least for those of you on the East Coast!

Will you be watching?

Pip Pip (that’s goodbye!)
