Embroidered Tea Box

I received this embroidered Trader Joe’s tea box a few weeks back from Michelle Stiennon. Michelle has started embroidering items that don’t always get the needlework treatment, like this box. She used the box as a gift box for some cookies she made with the tea itself – a great surprise gift. I love that the stitches are subtle and you need to look closely to see it.
For those of you who do embroidery, do you ever choose unique items to embroider?
