Teapots for All Seasons

I love a good cup of tea - and I love teapots
 These teapots are in a hutch in the kitchen - when I am at the baking island this is my view - it is always cheery
 Sweet Bunny teapot - great for 
springtime tea parties
 Violets and pansies
 All the teapots are from thrift shops, antique malls or yard sales - except for the Desert Rose - which came from my Granny - Desert Rose was her everyday dishes for years and years.  Many of the teapots were gifts.
 I have several tea-for-one sets - this is one of my very favorites shhhh, don't tell the others that I said so.

 I have more teapots than will fit in that one hutch Red Transferware is nice for summer tea
      I have many seasonal themed teapots that only  come out during certain holidays. 
 Springtime tea
 Red Transferware is perfect for summer
 Autumn brings out the Sears Cattail teapot ,
it is 73 years old 
 And for christmas - Santa, Snowman 
and lots of holly
The holly teapot can be used on into winter,
long after christmas

A garden tea party 
Every teapot has special memories

Scarecrow and Pumpkin teapot 

for hearty Autumn tea -  won't you have a cup?

A quick question for you JoAnn...how do you store and display all of your treasures? You certainly have collected some lovely things. Thanks for your visit, I hope that you stop back again soon.

You have a teapot for every occasion and season. The red transferware one is my favorite! Great collection and I thank you for sharing and linking.

What wonderful tea cups and tea pots too. You have a wonderful collection and they are all shiny clean too. How do you manage that?

Oh my! Your tableware collection is amazing, and you display it to perfection. I have a few mis-matched bits and a 'Brown Betty' teapot!

Your home is just perfect for Autumn (the post below and this one too), and perfect for tea any season. Wonderful collection. I love your header photo too.

We're now getting into the best time of year for a good cup of tea, too.

What a delightful collection of teapots! I acquire most of my teapots from thrift stores and yard sales too.

Great collection of tea pots. I can't even decide on a favorite, there are so many nice ones.

I have a rhinoceros tea pot that I got at the Home Goods store. (I love rhinoceros.) Other than that one, I have a "regular" tea pot for actually making tea. :-)

Hi JoAnn. What little beauties and you have a whole lot. You are set for any occasion and they are all so pretty. I did look back at your last post too that I missed and your table looks wonderful. I have a few t-pots, with the little crow one of my favorites. I know you like him too but I have never seen another like him, but still looking for you. I don't have a special Christmas one though, and that will be my next find. Your Santa one looks just like something I have, except mine is a set of measuring cups that fit into each other. You will see it soon..Happy Wednesday..xxoJudy

I have what was called a chocolate set from my grandmother. It's been in storage for a long time so I don't remember it exactly, but I recall a tall pot with small handled cups. - Margy

What! No froggy teapot? Maybe I should send you mine.

How fun it is to have a collection that spans the seasons! You never have to go through a "post holiday slump" because there's always another around the corner - and you have the cute dishes and teapots to celebrate it!
