The Tea Bats Lenormand was created for my Orange Moon Tea Society fiction/project and the style and design was inspired by the Mad Hatter poem Twinkle Twinkle Little Bat. The Orange Moon Tea Society is a fictional group in my Snapdragon Tea young adult series. A trio of sisters from the story own a bat emporium that sometimes acts as a whimsical bat cabaret on the weekends. In the story the deck was created by the eldest sister a.k.a. Flossie Leather Feathers and she uses it as a discussion piece at her society’s tea parties. It’s meant to look old and weathered; embracing all that is tea and bats, among a few other creatures that turn up. The standard deck comes with a matching bat and tea cup charm made in my workshop. Below is the second edition of the deck. There is also a mini size version of the deck for those who’d like to keep one tucked in their pocket when they travel. Below is a partial sampling of the deck – not all cards are pictured. When available this deck it is available through The Attic Shoppe Trading Co.
