Okay, I have some mockups for the teapots, I created three basic types for this, the elegant serving teapot ready to be painted silver used for fancy parties, the standard teapot for everyday use and the tea kettle for brewing teas and ideal for painting flat black to make a cast iron tea kettle for use on a wood cook stove.

These are the three I made, they range in sizes between 1″ for the short stout tea kettle and 1.5″ for the tall elegant tea kettle on the left.  They are obviously rough and not fired, being just basic shape explorations to decide which ones I like.  The handle on the tea kettle is a large staple with clay on it, I will use a different kind of wire when I make the finished tea kettle.

For now I need to get a fashion doll and see how the teapots measure up, since I am not sure what the scale is for fashion dolls.  I also need to get batteries for my camera.  This picture was taken with what I had thought was a new set, however as soon as I took the picture (without flash) the low battery light came on!
