Elegant Occupied Japan Teapot

I

I really love this teapot. You can't tell by the pictures but it is a really majestic purple with gold trim. I found this one at a garage sale this summer for $2.00 It holds about four cups. We have been really busy trying to start a new Vietnam Vets Organization. Sometimes I want to cry and other times I just want to walk off and leave to the guys. It is so hard for Roger to do anything because he can't hear so that leaves me to handle whatever comes to his mind . Believe me when I say his mind never rests.There is such a need for an organization that no matter what I can't give up. So many of our Veterans have PTSD and don't have a clue how to file a claim or even what the symptoms are. I always knew there was something not quite right with him but had no idea there was a name for it much less compensation. Now that I know I have to "Pay it forward" and help other vets and their families. Anyway I'll get off that subject for now at least. Got to go to the other blog and put some "goodies" on there. Watch for your Angel it's always with you................

Another Porcelier Teapot

I remembered I had another Porcelier teapot but could'nt find it until tonight. That should be a hint at how many teapots I have. I think I like the little Dutch boy and girl the best. We have had a very busy week-end and I think this week will be just as busy so be patient and I will post as I can. I don't know why this uploaded two pictures of the same thing but sometimes my brain and my computer get mixed signals. Every one have a great week...........

Porcelier Teapot


We stopped on the way home today at a monthly flea-market in Bonham Texas. These people were setting out all these wonderful old antiques. It was one of those deals where you wish you were rich and could make them an offer on all their stuff. Any way I found three teapots and this is one of them. It is in excellant condition and really heavy. I thought it was so pretty and I didn't have anything even similar to it. I promise to put the other two up this week-end when I have time. Hubby has me working on a Veterans project and it is so time consuming I don't have very much extra time for anything else. Until next time. remember this week-end is Veterans Day so remember all the ones we have lost over the years...................

Price Kensington Cottage Ware Teapot



I bought this little teapot this morning at the thrift store for $2.00. It really made my day. I looked it up when i got home and found it for $39.99. Not a bad deal huh? It is a beautiful day here in Oklahoma and the cracks in my yard are finally closing. sure hope we have a wet and warm winter. Back to the teapot. There are no chips cracks or anything wrong with it. I think it will fit very well with my others , don't you? I have so many now they look like they are hatching lol. But a person can never have enough teapots.........................
