Teapot Tuesday does not always feature teapots that are perfect. Today’s teapot was a thrift store find for $2 because it was missing a lid. But it can still be useful and I love the way this one looks filled with flowers.



This teapot is really a sturdy one and it looks like it has hardly been used. Somewhere it got separated from its lid but it still can be a really useful. Fill it with flowers and it has a new purpose.
When the world is all at odds
And the mind is all at sea
Then cease the useless tedium
And brew a cup of tea.
There is magic in its fragrance,
There is solace in its taste;
And the laden moments vanish
Somehow into space.
The world becomes a lovely thing!
There’s beauty as you’ll see;
All because you briefly stopped
To brew a cup of tea.

It is often you find a pot with no lid in thrift shops. But there are all kinds of things you can use them for, right?
That is SWEET! I love the “vintage-ness”! Beautiful with the flowers. And that’s a lovely poem, too.
I really do love this one! It is perfect for flowers or anything actually –just not for tea brewing!
Perfect ‘vase’ for those gorgeous flowers!
I think it works really well as a vase and it is now quickly becoming my favorite go to vase!
What a great idea! And this is the perfect teapot for it. I have a glass one and the lid broke but now I may be able to reuse it differently. Thanks for sharing!!! 🙂
Oh a glass teapot would be a perfect vase! I think you need to make that happen!
a multi-tasker! well played!
Haha! Yes, it is a multi tasker which is a good thing.
Beautiful as a vase. Everything has a purpose.
Indeed. Even with no lid it has a purpose!
This teapot makes for one lovely and sturdy vase.
I just moved it and freshened up the flowers in it and it still looks as lovely as it did before. My new go to vase!
