This collection of teapots was made for a Mothers Day tea party, an idea that I wish I would have thought of myself.Teapots are one of my favourite shapes to decorate, although my list of favourites seems to grow with each new shape and design. I love different types of tea (I have at least 25 at home) so this shape was irresistible the first time I saw it.
Some of the designs, like the hand stitched teapot below, were imagined, new ideas that I wanted to try out, or teapots that I wish I owned.
Others were inspired by real teapots that I found in the china cabinet or online. The purple daisy teapot was inspired by the vintage teapot below which is available here:
The Japanese cherry teapot below was inspired by one of my mother's teapots that I still am not allowed to touch because it is so old.
This bouquet was put together in an over sized mug to complete the theme. Perfect to fill with tea and dip the cookies in!
I hope that whether you are having a tea party or just a quiet day at home, everyone has a Happy Mothers Day!
