Something for Mom- Teapots

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MOM THIS MONTH!!!

I WANTED TO DO A POST ON TEAPOTS FOR HER
BECAUSE OF THE TEAPOT CAKE SHE LIKED
THAT NEVER BECAME A REALITY.
(THE ONE THAT SPARKED MY SPHERE CAKE OBSESSION!)

YOU CAN FIND A TEAPOT IN THE SHAPE
OF ANYTHING AND ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING!
INCLUDING A TERRORIST
OR  A SWEET LITTLE WHALE FOR BUNNY BANANA !

I LOVE MODERN TEAPOTS THOUGH !
ZYGO TEAPOT

SORAPOT MADE WITH PYREX .  HOLLA !
THE SPIN KETTLE

I'D HAVE TO SAY THOUGH 
THAT IN THE SMALL
TEAPOT EXPLORATION THAT I DID,
MY FAVORITE TEA POTS WERE
DONE BY NOI VOLKOV IN MARYLAND.

HE DOES THESE ARTIST BASED TEAPOTS
AND THEY ARE SPECTACULAR !!

FAMOSE MUSTACHE
TEAPOT DALI/PICASSO


TEAPOT PICASSO/DALI
CLAES OLDENBURG
TEAPOT ARMAN
TEAPOT MIRO
THERE ARE MANY MORE TEAPOTS ON HIS
WEBSITE LIKE THESE SO CHECK EM OUT
IF YOU'RE EVER BORED!

THE TEAPOT I USE AT HOME IS WAY
LESS SPECTACULAR :
I LIKED ITS SPHERICAL SHAPE
AND RETRO GREEN COLOR .
PRETTY STANDARD.

BUT MY ALL TIME FAVORITE TEAPOT
IS THE ONE THAT MOM GAVE TO ME
FROM WHEN SHE WAS YOUNGER AND
WAS REALLY BIG ON COLLECTING
ELEPHANTS:
I KNOW THAT THE THINGS I LOVE ABOUT
IT ARE THINGS SHE LOVED ABOUT IT TOO.

LIKE, I LOVE HOW THE EYES ARE MADE
TO LOOK LIKE EYELASHES .

AND I LOVE THE DETAILS, LIKE ON THE FEET.

ALL AROUND A VERY CUTE TEAPOT!
TOO CUTE TO USE!!!
ALTHOUGH I'M NOT EVEN SURE
IF IT CAN BE USED OR NOT.
 I'LL NEVER WANT TO RISK IT.

SO FOR NOW IT'S BACK ON THE SHELF !

THIS ONE'S FOR MOM
