What happens to old teapots?
Where do they go when they are no longer in use?
After who knows how many years of gracing a table, these
venerable old ladies (I don’t think of teapots as being masculine!) can find
themselves being added to special collections or hidden in some dark cupboard
or being put to an entirely different task altogether.
One of my sisters-in-law loves to find old teapots and
coffee jugs, mostly from thrift shops, and repurpose them into plant
containers.
She has recently had two rustic shelving units made, to hang
on a fence to display her goodies.
One can be seen from a dining room window and the other from
a kitchen window.
I visited her this afternoon for a few hours and it was
great to catch up on all the family news (gossip?).
It seems as we grow older, we become more interested in
hearing about what others are doing, more than actually doing things ourselves!
May your day be a happy one 😊
Margaret.
