OH! Did someone say "tatting"!? I just tatted a teapot and featured it on my blog! Come see! :) (It's a few posts down by now, but it's on the front page)
(chuckle) I store my tatting in tea tins, chocolate tins, cookie tins...you name it. I also have a couple of small wooden tea crates that will hold either tatting or tatting supplies when they are empty. I do have one domed tea tin that I used to keep tatting in but has gone back to storing tea.
First of all, welcome to Uniquely Tea TattingChic and Gina! Wow ~ I've just visited your blogs and the tatting you do is BEAUTIFUL! One of my favorite rooms at Kensington Palace is the lacemaking room - it's hard to imagine women "back then" doing tatting and other lace-making by candlelight! They said that most of those women went blind at a very young age. Guess we should say a prayer of thanks to Thomas Edison!!
parTealady ~ you'll soon have a chance to share your decisions with us! Stay tuned.
Joan ~ I'm impressed! It looks very, very difficult to me! All I ever managed to do "back in the day" was cross-stich. But I did love it...
Great. Just great. Did you know I'm a tatter? So naturally I followed your links and saw that whole BOOK of tea-themed tatting patterns! I NEED that! And I have birthday money left ... but ... I was saving up for this tea party bracelet I really, really want ... decisions, decisions!
Uniquely Tea is a collection of tea related bits and bobs from here, there and everywhere, with the occasional 'one-for-the-pot' off-topic post thrown in for good measure.

I'll have to take down my empty tea tins from the shelf and put them to good use.
Goodness, it's been a long time since I've seen anyone tatting. I used to do it as a teenager.

This is awesome! I actually have tatting supplies. I'll have to do this! A great way to organize them and make them shelf-presentable!
Hello Melanie, and thank you for visiting/posting. Hope you'll show us a picture on your blog of your newly organized tatting tins!!

Angela, No, I did not know you were a tatter. I'm NOT a tatter but thought that book was so cool.
