I bought a cozy in England years ago and use it every day. Bring on the English style. Love it!

I wouldn't say you had nothing to blog about... Love this post, how fun. We are not British, but my younger sister insists on using a Tea Cozy, too bad she doesn't read blogs, I'd hyperlink you so she could see her options. thanks Val, I love the Fifi Cozy.

Darn! I got rid of my Georgian house styled tea cozy because I never used it. It was Cute too.
Round-ups are great.

Love the cozy...... great looking ones here!

Must get me one, my hubbys grandmother had one, I always remember her tea pot and the many cups poured from it. She was from Wales, as well as her husband.

Thanks for the look into the cozy.

I use my tea cosy every single day, but I've only got the one. After seeing this post, I am lusting for more. Sure do like the one shaped like a crown!

Well, I've just been having a lazy day and thought I'd check your blog. How fun! These kinds of posts are just the ticket on days like these! I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I was just taking a break and wondered what the "Vamp" had blogged about next! Loved it because I love my tea! However I don't have a cozy and because I actually have the fabric you posted as the Fifi cozy, I think I just might make me one!

I use that fabric for my mini privacy screens but what a great way to wrap my teapot!

Still skimming.

When I got to Nacho Libre (such an inside joke, except for those in the south west?)...I had to stop, take a walk around the block, and return.
These are brilliant and it is such an original feature.
Wonderful...
cheers, DIANE

I was with you to the end - how fun! My mother in law knitted a TP cozy for me - it's actually a likeness of me in my wedding dress. I bring it out when she visits.
