Unique and Gorgeous Whistling Tea Kettle

by Leave a Comment

This Riwendell Whistling Tea Kettle (Stainless Steel) is one of the best looking, most deliciously unique, teapots or kettles I’ve seen in a while.

A very long while!

The handle, the lid, the decorative sides of the pot, itself… What can I say? This one has me swooning.

From Amazon:

  • The handle is ergonomically designed for optimal comfort and grip and the spring-loaded lever easily opens and closes the spout.
  • Non toxic plastic thermal insulation handle, imitation wood grain
  • The kettle whistles loudly when boiling to notify you it is finished.
  • High-grade stainless steel construction guards against rust

A gorgeous gift idea, the Riwendell Whistling Tea Kettle might just look better in your own kitchen. I’m currently preparing to introduce my teapot collection to this exotic beauty as we speak.

 

Peacock Teapot and Mug Set (Gorgeous!)

by Leave a Comment

Ever have something sneak up on you – something you’d never really thought a great deal about and then suddenly, you love it with ever fiber of your being?

That’s my relationship with peacocks, to a tee.. or to a feather. I’ve always been a huge animal and bird lover – and I mean HUGE – but peacocks weren’t any more or less on my radar than any other bird.

Then I saw a few up close, in person, and they are a complete an utter obsession now. They’re just spectacular and I’m not sure how I ever got along without them. If you’re as crazy about peacocks as I am (or if you simply love beautiful teapots and uncommonly beautiful teacups), you’re going to be as wild about this Peacock Teapot and Teacup Set as I am.

This gorgeous set includes 6 teacups, 6 saucers, 6 spoons (too cute!), 1 beautiful sugar bowl, 1 fancy milk cup, and 1 Teapot

From Amazon:

  • Porcelain surface delicate and smooth, easy to clean, noble and elegant.
  • Meet time,Space-time conversion,Classical inheritance,We are good intentions of each piece of porcelain
  • Lead free quality, long service life, and never fade
  • Microwave and dishwasher safe for your convenience

They’re available in many different colors but my personal favorites are the blues and the green and setgreen (shown). If you have tea lovers on your Christmas list, this would be a gift they’ll talk about all year long!

Mr. Coffee Hot Tea Maker: Perfect Gift for Tea Lovers (and You!)

by 1 Comment

I hate when I have moments of indecision – especially when shopping. I mean, the faster I can decide, the faster I have the object of my desire. And yet…

Sometimes, there is no clear cut choice. This is one of those times. I absolutely love each color of the Mr. Coffee Hot Tea Maker: Black, White, and Stainless Steel. When I first found it on Amazon, I was all set and ready to order the beautiful white version, and then “it” happened – I noticed there were two other versions and that they were equally beautiful.

  • Premium quality German SCHOTT DURAN glass
  • Custom steeping time: steep fresh tea with any flavor tea bags or tea leaves
  • Convenient BOIL and KEEP WARM controls
  • Audible ready signal to let you know when tea is ready to drink
  • Boil dry protection
  • Height:10.12″ x Width:5.66″ x Depth:8.5″, Weight:3.18 lbs.
  • Cord length:36″
  • Watts: 1200

Years ago, before my husband began making all of our coffee with a “pour over” method or in an antique brewer, we had a much-used Mr. Coffee Coffee Maker. I didn’t just use it for coffee, either – I used it to brew tea. I loved how convenient it was and loved how it kept it hot. I mean, let’s be honest, I’m no more of a “one cup of tea” gal anymore than I’m a “one cup of coffee” gal.

The only problem was, you guessed it, the tea would often taste (and even smell) more like coffee than it or I desired.

This beauty is the answer to my tea dreams… if I can just decide on the color!

  • My appliances are black, so that would seem to suggest the black – and it is a handsome thing.
  • There’s something so crisp and pretty about the white – also a handsome thing.
  • And, yet… the stainless steel – how beautiful is she?? The color pops on the buttons.

It’s almost funny how torn (three-ways) I am. Click through any link for a closer look. And good luck deciding!

Not only would this Tea Maker be a great addition to your own kitchen, it would make an EXCELLENT gift for any tea lover in your family.


Microwave Sun Tea Maker

by Leave a Comment

Like all self-respecting Crazy Tea Chicks and Crazy Tea Chucks, I pretty much HAVE to try every new tea product, teapot, tea, and tea gadget that comes down the pike.

The great-looking Microwave Sun Tea Maker, shown here is certainly NO exception.

There’s just something kind of cool about being the first one in your circle to have something, right?  They’re like, “Well, of course YOU found this… YOU would have one…”

I’m here for the hype.

This unique Sun Tea Maker allows you to easily enjoy “sun” tea all year long. You can have delicious tea in just eight minutes with this great-looking Catamount glass microwave sun tea maker from Walter Drake.

What’s more, the glass sun tea pitcher works great when set in direct sunlight too.

  • Cool-touch
  • Easy-grip handle
  • Dishwasher safe.

Take a closer look at the Microwave Sun Tea Maker on Amazon. I absolutely love this!


Blue Floral Cast Iron Teapot with Stainless Steel Infuser

by Leave a Comment

The beautiful Blue Floral Cast Iron Teapot with Stainless Steel Infuser would make a perfect Mother’s Day gift, but it’d also make a perfect gift for anyone.. anytime.. for any reason.

As in you… today… just because you deserve it!

I actually have (and use) both – an electric tea kettle and a whistling tea kettle. The whistler hangs out on the stove at all times, simply because it’s so pretty I don’t want to hide it away. Besides, it was given to me by my oldest daughter and I think about her every time I look at it.

Ahhhhhhh.

If you’re like me, you might be floored to learn that this beauty is actually just under $20. I honestly thought it’d be twice that much.  I think the beauty of this teapot speaks to the entire “tea experience.” Being a tea lover is more than just loving the wonderful… Heavenly, even… taste of tea. It’s about loving the entire zen-like, peaceful, and beautiful experience of choosing your tea, selecting the perfect cup, brewing, and enjoying the tea.

It’s an experience made even more beautiful when you fill the moment with beauties like this teapot.

Teapot Details and Features:

  • Designed with a stainless steel infuser that allows for loose or bagged tea and ensures it will not alter or detract from the taste
  • Comes in a vibrant blue color with a beautiful floral design reminiscent of Japanese cherry blossoms
  • Crafted of cast iron in order to evenly absorb and retain heat.
  • To clean, do not use any dish washing detergent. Instead, use only clean water. Do not leave tea or water in the pot for longer than an hour, and dry thoroughly after each use. Not dishwasher safe.
  • Holds up to 1000mL(34oz). Please note: Not for stovetop use. Water should be boiled in another vessel first.

You can find the Blue Floral Cast Iron Teapot with Stainless Steel Infuser on Amazon.


The Wizard of Oz Teapots…. Beautiful!

by Leave a Comment

Wizard of Oz Teapot
There are some movies (especially from the Golden Age of Hollywood) that I will watch each and every time they’re on..

  • Rio Bravo
  • It’s a Wonderful Life
  • Miracle on 34th Street
  • El Dorado
  • Planet of the Apes (the original)
  • Gone with the Wind
  • My Fair Lady
  • Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
  • Oklahoma

And one of my favorite things of all time… The Wizard of Oz. Is it me or does this movie just get more wonderful every single time you see it?  I think that the further-removed we get from movies like this, the more special they are to us because of what they represent – a simpler time and a simpler/less-complicated life… and world!

I guess that’s why so many of us LOVE to surround ourselves with memorabilia – so even when we aren’t actually watching the movie, with it’s larger than life characters,  we can still enjoy the movie, with it’s larger than life characters.

The gorgeous Cardew Design Wizard of Oz Teapot (pictured at the top) is a breathtakingly beautiful tribute to this wonderful and legendary romp.

  • One teapot 4 cup
  • Porcelain china
  • Designed by Paul Cardew, world famous UK artist, specializing in teapots and accessories for over 35 years
  • High Fired Porcelain with full wrap around decal, extremely durable
  • Highest quality ceramic ware, dishwasher and micro safe

See Cardew Design Wizard of Oz Teapot to take a closer look.

Another equally-beautiful Wizard of Oz Teapot is pictured below.

This adorable hand-painted ceramic Wizard of Oz Teapot also features four of the lovable characters on the front.


Gorgeous Black Teakettle: Ooooh La La!

by

Black is one of the most popular colors for the kitchen – my own appliances are shiny black and I wouldn’t dream of having another color. I also love the look of black dishes on a table, black pans filled with deliciousness, and a black tea kettle letting off steam.

The Black Tea Kettle pictured above is the Circulon Teakettles Morning Bird Teakettle and she’s a beauty. While she is, of course, available in a wide array of colors, I think she’s especially dramatic in black.

  • Generous 2-quart steel teakettle capacity heats up to 8 cups of water
  • Textured teakettle handle with squeeze-and-pour spout lever; stainless steel lid seals tight
  • The sleek colored enamel exterior is stain resistant and easy to clean
  • The teakettle’s convenient whistling feature signals when water is at a boil
  • Lifetime limited warranty
  • Other Colors: Rhubarb Red, Mustard Yellow, Mandarin Orange, Circulon Red, Kiwi Green, and Capri Turquoise
