\u00a0Author: \u00a0Autumn (Janette)<\/em><\/p>\n

Jordan and I have been writing our blog for over a year now, and we realized that I have never shown you my Hall teapot collection.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The teapots were made in Liverpool, Ohio by the Hall China Company that was established in 1903 after the merger of several small companies.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I have around 50 teapots, (I hope Mr. Autumn forgets to read the blog today…He doesn’t know I have that<\/em> many). They were mostly purchased for me by my mother. \u00a0She enjoyed finding them, and it gave her a reason to go to antique stores. \u00a0I finally had to ask her to stop.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I had shelves made especially for them in our pantry<\/a>……<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

and put the overflow in our built-in kitchen hutch.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This one started it all. \u00a0It was a wedding gift to my in-laws who were married 65 years ago. \u00a0My mother-in-law just gave it to me one day. \u00a0I did a little research and decided it would be a fun collection.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I don’t really have a favorite.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You know, how none of your kids are your favorites. \u00a0Well, it’s the same with the teapots…..kinda.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a cute little lady with her polka dots and little fat belly.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I actually use them. \u00a0It’s fun to color code them with the seasons or with the table decor or the cups. \u00a0For instance, this one gets used in the autumn.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I had an entire set of dishes in this pattern \u00a0with every. single. accessory and serving dish. (Another project of my mother’s). \u00a0When we moved, I gave them to Jordan. \u00a0They are very sweet, the kind you would use when your girl friends come for a spring or summer lunch.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This teapot is the same style as above. \u00a0Don’t you just love the fancy handle?<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is another one that is good for spring\/summer because of its sweet tulips.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

How \u00a0many of those flowers can you identify?<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I love this one with its fleur de lys design. \u00a0The lighting combined with the teapots’ shine made \u00a0a glare. \u00a0Sorry.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I have two yellow ones in this style.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

One has leaves and acorns.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The other one has flowers.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I love this little cutie.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What an unusual lid…..<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

and handle. \u00a0What about you? \u00a0Do you have any collections? \u00a0Drop us a comment and let us know.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

*****<\/p>\n

We are so excited to announce the winner of the $50 The Container Store gift card. \u00a0And the winner is……………….Debbie from Refresh Style<\/a>. \u00a0Congrats, Debbie. \u00a0Be sure to do a post for us on what you do with the prize.<\/h3>\n
