Teapots and coffee pots

This September will bring MacMillan coffee morning once again.
Every year at work we take bought or made cakes for sale at lunchtime. The craft club has supported this cake sale by making items to sell. And this year will be no different.
People have already pledged to make certain things to sell or offered their help manning the stall.
This year we have about 6 weeks to prepare and I have volunteered to run the craft sessions we need to prepare our tea bag holders and coffee sachet holders.
A few weeks ago I spotted a delightful little teapot made by Ann Melvin of Positively Papercraft and decided that if it held two covered tea bags it would be on our agenda.
I had to make one and this is what I came up with:
 So chuffed for my first attempt.














And then lo and behold, Ann only came up with something else; an amazing little coffee cup stand and covered cup. It's a 4 oz cup so only small but will certainly hold two coffee sachets.
Of course, this was perfect so had to make this too. This is my first attempt and so pleased with it. It is so damn cute.










Together they are perfect.
We shall (hopefully, willing hands permitted) make 50 of each. I already have the 4 oz cups. The cup and lid are both biodegradable and were purchased from Amazon.

If you want to have a go at either of these then follow the links below to Ann's You Tube demonstration. She includes links below her videos to all you need to make your own.

I do hope you like these and if you do make your own I'd love to see what you make in the comments below.
Thanks for stopping by and do come again.
