I'm a Little Teapot.....

Having British blood in my system for some reason HAS automatically made me a stickler for tea. Earl Grey tends to be my favorite. You tear open a bag or pop open a tin of that stuff and it's like crack! it's soothing intoxicating smell instantly calms me. I recall when i was younger we had tea time with my grandmum, tea set and all...and now that she nor my father are unfortunately no longer present in my life i feel like i should honor them by acquiring a tea set of my own so i thought i would share some of my findings in case any of you out there feel inspired to get your tea time on.

There's always the more modern and manly tea time with this Mr. Tea teapot for $45 on Etsy.

Then we have the scare-the-crap-out-of-you Ewok teapot. seriously i love Star Wars but this thing is creeeeepy. Especially for $80. to each their own.

I found the Halo Teapot to be simple yet modern in it's deliciously smooth whiteness.

I'm not sure how much i wanna pay for a little sexy in my tea but the Blaue Blume teapot tries to seduce you into paying a hot $128 for it.

i could say a lude comment on this "rooster" tea set but i better not.

for $17.29 i am digging this Old Dutch red tea set. It comes in other colors too.

There's the stylishly earthyYixing Crescent tea set

There's the ever so cute Matryoshka Tea for Two set

The Teapot Shoppe has every gaudy and kitschy set imaginable.

There's the English Teastore

Overstock.com has a plethora as well.

Enjoying Tea has some unique finds.

All in all i guess it's easier to hit up Ebay?

I have yet to find the suitable tea set but when i do there will be a light shining down on it and hopefully a backup choir singing the ever-glorious "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
