tippy the drippy tea pot,
The Ladybug with swirls teapot looks a whole lot better than it functions as a teapot.Therefore I suggest its purchase for decorative purposes alone. That is unless you like to have hot tea dripping over your table tops or clothing as you pour. My husband and I have experimented with our pouring technique and have concluded – after too many messy clean ups.. this pot is a disaster as a teapot.. we are still figuring out an alternate use for it.

Cutesy and fun.,
The packaging for this product was very nice; the box it came in echoed the pattern of the teapot itself. The box and the styrofoam forms it came packed in were sturdy enough to keep, should the product need to be repacked at a later date, such as for moving. I am pleased by this, as the packaging of many products is useless and should be discarded after opening.
Please be aware, when opening the box, that there are two layers of styrofoam on top. The first one can be laid aside, but the second one holds the lid to the teapot. Be careful not to drop this or casually toss that piece of styrofoam aside! After the lid is removed, the second layer of styrofoam can be lifted away to reveal the teapot itself.
Speaking of the teapot, I saw on the product description that it was about six inches tall…but I didn’t see any other measurements, so I expected a petite little pot. Not so! This teapot is a bit bulky, so take note of that if you intend to display it on a shelf. It might well dominate the rest of your decor.
The colors and pattern were exactly as depicted, the pigment rich and deep, instead of looking washed-out or hastily done.
All in all, a very whimsical, adorable item for any lover of teapots, ladybugs, or both!

So cute!,
I ordered the ladybug teapot as a thank you gift for a friend. I searched for weeks both online and in stores but could not find the right teapot. I was so thrilled to find this one! It is so much cuter in person than it is online. I was very pleased with my overall shopping experience. My order arrived quickly and was packaged very well. I’m sure my friend will love it!
