Tis almost St. Patrick's Day...now I know I am not Irish...but I can't help but celebrate a people that love to celebrate. And I did have some fabulous times in Ireland. My friend Judy (from the West side)...sent me the most hilarious book called "The feckin' book of everything Irish"...and I got a good many laughs from it. If you are not Irish, it is at least a good thing to have an Irish friend.
So when my friend Judy (from the East side) was in town we went and did some walking...
and I bought myself a new teapot...by the same English company, Emma Bridgewater. I just love it...It says Tea In The Garden on the lid and is adorned with cherries.
So this March 17th don't forget to wear green...just because...it's a cool color...Beanneacht!
May the most you wish for
be the least you get.
May the best times you've ever had
be the worst you will ever see.

My great-great-grandmother was Irish so I can relate to St. Patrick's Day. :) Love the tea pots. Sorry you broke the lid. The planter idea is so cute. I love tea too but ice tea.
Sorry about your lid! But the new tea pot is darling. I have a collection of vintage Hall tea pots from the 30's and 40's and one, in particular, doesn't have a lid and I often use it for fresh cut flowers. It's great for a tight bunch with short stems. Love the planter idea too but I know I'd kill whatever I planted in it! And since you are a tea drinker, have you ever tried Red Tea from Africa, also called Rooibos. It has a mild flavor, not as grassy as green tea, and the color is amazing! I let my used tea bags sit to dry and then cut them open, dump out the tea leaves, and use the bag as collage material! The bags stains a gorgeous burnt sienna color. It's truly beautiful. One of my most favorite collage materials. So I drink a lot of the tea!
