Tea Pots, Coffee Pots, Cups and Saucers Repurposed. What fun this is! 

How often do you find yourself having some extra tea pots, coffee pots, cups, and saucers that you found while thrifting. Sometimes you pick them up as lonely pieces, maybe they come from a broken set of your own, your have pieces not being used, and etc. Not to worry there is hope for them to use with your decor. Use them inside the home, or outside your home as well. Repurpose them by crafting! 

Teapots are not always for everyone. Yeah, they are cute for show with settings in your home. However, there are some adorable alternatives for using them beyond your kitchens as you can see above, or if you were to search with Bing, and Google too. 

You know you might also have some teapots, coffee pots, cups, saucers, and such that are just plain ugly, or have some minor imperfections. Don't throw those. You could also decorate those with maybe some adorable colored pebbles, use some rocks, find some extra twine to use or some yarn to wrap them, and so on. 

As you can see above there are many ways to reuse, repurpose, and upcycle these forgotten pieces. Those shown are only a few of the neat ideas I have shared. You could also consider some lights, lamps, candle holders as shown, candle holder stands, some lovely bird feeders, and just so much more! 

All of that creativity is over whelming, whew! They are so enjoyable though, aren't they? If you are like me often while thrifting, and yard saling you find many unwanted pieces being offered. They are either lonely, unwanted, have fulfilled a home and ready for a new, maybe have some minor imperfections, but you see a way to revive them by giving them a new life. Bring it home, and find something creative to do with it. Don't forget to check your own inventories as there might also be some unwanted pieces there as well. 

Now, if you don't have the time, or the creative thoughts within you keep in mind there are many out there who make things like this, and sell them too. They have shops online with Ecrater, Etsy, and there are some creative people with Ebay too. If you wish to see a wide selection just use your bing search, or google it. Hit the images tab, and watch what all comes alive before your eyes. 

Now the next time that you are out thrifting, and yard saling you will have a few more ideas to add to your lists of wants and needs. Find them unwanted treasures to give them a new life for your homes, or to offer to other homes as well. Have fun, enjoy, and thanks so much for sharing your time with Thrifty Shop Girl! Take care, and see you all again soon. Happy Thrifting!
