Show Off Your Pots and Cups XVI

by Chip » Mar 2nd, '11, 21:49

We begin a new chapter, you can visit where we left off here:
http://www.teachat.com/viewtopic.php?f= ... 84#p190284

"A Journey into the TeaCave ..." Part 1.

The shelves hold the wooden boxes (sans the signed lids) that these pieces came in ... works nicely for displaying when you have a LOT to display.

This is where we sit for tea ... the pieces shown here, 80% are from the Hagi SO program, but not all the Hagi SOs are here.

I know. I was referring to my wish for a cat-free zone where I can display them. :lol: My cat likes to play the "push and pull things off shelves" game. :roll:

Ohhhh, there is cat protection built into this that does not meet the eye. And is one reason why this is a DVD/CD unit versus a deep bookshelf ... if you catch my drift!?! :mrgreen: :idea: :wink:

As previously mentioned in an alternate universe: Ooh shiny... *-*

Just wondering, if the signed lids are stored separately, how do you keep track of which lid belongs to which piece?

I guess the question is : how many parts of this "Journey into the Tea Cave" will there be !?!

Another one could be : how many will it take for my jaw not te be able to climb up ever again ! :lol:

Love it, Chip, a beautiful collection.
Also, nice tease by showing only a little of the other shelves in the background :)
Many more parts to come I hope!

P.S. Nice thermometer friendly yuzamashi :)
