Postcard from Iris Esther - Acorn Tea

Single postcard with a beautiful illustration from Iris Esther. 

Seven years ago, on a chilly winter afternoon, my son, then just 1.5 years old, sat nestled in his grandmother Hanneke’s lap. Together, they gazed out the window at the graceful birch tree in our neighbor’s garden. As they watched, his ‘omi’ spun a whimsical tale about squirrels having a tea party in the branches, sipping warm acorn tea. That simple, magical moment gave me goosebumps—and I’ve cherished it ever since.

Now, years later, I’ve captured that memory in my latest illustration, Acorn Tea. It’s a scene that evokes the coziness of winter—a day spent with your best friend, coming home to warm drinks, mummy-made snacks, and rosy cheeks after being out in the cold.

This illustration is now part of my winter postcard collection, designed to wrap you in the same warmth and wonder I felt that day. Explore Acorn Tea and other enchanting pieces in my cozy little webshop, where you’re always welcome to find a touch of magic and warmth.
