Firsties whoo :) Really like the zebra teapot, tea would be so much more fun when poured from that pot
Hi Sarah!
Gary - The teapot came out beautiful! Love the blue. I really like the detail on the bottom.
Thanks, and this blue glaze can make a very interesting light blue accent in the crevices..
Ditto on what every say and is thinking! very vivid!
Again, you dazzle us with heat-activated chemistry. Very, very nice!
I trust you'll be charging loads for it?
Oh yeah, millions Gord.
That Zebra is adorable! When I was on Safari (I know that sounds posh, but I didn't pay for it) there's a video clip of me shouting 'Zebra crossing' (ba doom tish) as a chain of Zebras crossed the road behind the jeep. I still laugh when I see it, mostly because it was *such* a bad joke.
Agree -- that's a highly desirable teapot. And the zebra's a wonderful touch, just so long as he doesn't bite. Have I ever told my story about being bitten by a zebra? No? Just as well.
It reminds me of the old antique chocolate pots- they were tall like this one. You could market it as a chocolate pot too... Really nice piece!
