Teapot-tastic Charity Find!!!!

I am not usually THIS organised for Christmas  ……. but  recent charity shop moochings sort of got the better of me …….

Christmas Bullet Planner

……….. and well, it would look most rude not to use the Christmas planner Lu bought me last Christmas at the earliest opportunity.

2 cup Price and Kensigton teapots

It all started with the orange teapot at just £1.50 which I bagsed for Rick (Marc’s partner) as as orange is his colour of choice to put it away for his now traditional “festive tut sack”.  When I went back to the shop a couple of days later all the others were still there and then when I turned them I saw that they were all made by Price and Kensington and totally unused.

At first I thought they might be worth a punt up on eBay as they are not cheap, so I bought the lot (£9), but then I got to thinking again ………… what about Christmas fairing gifts for Iris and Bertie to take to school at Christmas?

Price and Kensignton 2 cup teapot

With, generally, three staff to each class, it’s a no brainer.  So the plan now is to buy a pack of individually wrapped teabags putting them in a teabag poem card ……

……. plus an individual pack of two/three biscuits?…….. I am so chuffed with myself!

A brilliant idea! I love that little poem. I used it last year on some Christmas cards in which I added a pocket where an individual teabag can be inserted. You can see what I did here: https://paperpanacea.blogspot.com/2020/12/make-yourself-cup-of-tea.html
