Finding Santa at Goodwill

Last Friday, my Aunt Jane and I spent the day shopping in Rome (Georgia, not Italy, alas), and I was pleased to add to my Santa mug and teapot collection for under $2!

I knew immediately this 55-cent mug was going home with me because it's got a design that is slightly different than my other Santa mugs, and I also liked the striped handle.

But my happiest find was this 99-cent Santa teapot! I have a mug (or two, or three …) with this exact same Santa face, but I've certainly never seen it in a teapot design. Christmas is already looking to be a good one this year, and I'm thinking I'll have enough Christmas teawares (to say nothing of Santa mugs) to serve all my friends and maybe the neighbors, too!

  2. I love the cross-eyed Santa on the teapot. He looks as if he has a million and one things on his to-do list and is nearly overwhelmed! So cute!

  3. I love the glasses on the Santa tea pot. If I remember the last time I read a post where you went to Rome, GA shopping you also found a Santa mug. That must be a great place to shop. Love your posts. Blessings

  6. Too cute! Just be careful about actually pouring hot liquids into some of these glazed cuties. I found out the hard way (on a brand new mug) that the glaze will crack. Guess they're more for show and enjoyment than use.
