Etsy Finds Friday - Teapots!

It's Etsy Finds Friday and today I thought I would do my Friday Feature a little differently... I am a coffee drinker.  I love coffee and once I wake up each morning I can't wait to have my first cup of the day!  I don't drink coffee much past noon though.  I also drink tea now and then, nice on a cold winter afternoon or evening.  Even though I don't drink tea as often as I do coffee, I love teapots!  I was browsing Etsy the other day and came across some fun, nature inspired teapots and thought I would share a few with you for Etsy Finds Friday.  Click on the images to see more about each piece and don't forget to visit each of these great shops to see more of their wonderful handmade creations.  Enjoy!

Etsy Finds Friday - Colorful Ceramics

It's *♥*Etsy Finds Friday*♥*

Today I am featuring the

Ceramics Created by:

Colorful Ceramics

 

I love the bold colors and the whimsical feel to this amazing ceramic work!!

In the Artist's own Words:

I love making ceramics that are enjoyable to look at and fun, and I hope you like them too.  All of my work is in earthenware clay, both terra cotta and white talc eathenware. The clay gets bisque fired to around 1900 F (cone 05-06), then glaze is applied and the pieces are fired again. All of my work is entirely hand made so even if there are similar pieces, there will be differences.

 

Strawberry Teapot

 Hand-built ceramic teapot designed like a strawberry, measures 14" tall, 11 " wide spout-handle, and 3 " deep. This teapot is functional and is made from white earthenware clay and is carved to bring out beautiful textures. This teapot has been painted with food-safe glazes so you can enjoy some nice warm tea.

Deep Yellow Cup with Saucer

This is a handmade and hand carved cup and is colored in yellow. It makes a nice coffee or tea cup, and is very whimsical and decorative.
