Birthday Party in a Box - Purple Butterfly Theme

 Back in March, some of our fellow Cast teammates on Etsy created an idea that we labled "Birthday Party in a Box". Several shops came together to work on this project. The idea was created to help generate more sales for these shops.

 A "Birthday Party in a Box is simply the items and accessories you would need for a themed party. The BPIAB was created for a girls tea party and includes items for the American Girl doll as well.
 Here are some of the items for the Butterfly theme


Butterfly Tea Set - Visit Abby's shop In His Hands Art

 Charm and delight that special child with their own handmade pottery tea set; each piece handpainted with a multi-colored butterfly. This unique tea set of 9 pieces is fully functional and food safe. Your child (or grandchild or special relationship!) can pour the tea, and drink and eat tea foods from the matching butterfly cup and plate. Notice the hand sculpted butterfly perched on the lid of the tea pot.

  Each 9 piece tea set has taken over 13 hours to make! First each piece is thrown on the wheel, then trimmed when dried. Each cup handle is individually made and attached at this point, including all three thrown parts of the tea pot plus a handle. After the first firing, the pieces are carefully sanded and then hand-painted with the colors and subject of the birthday theme with 3 coats of underglaze then 2 coats of transparent, before the second firing. Even though tiny, each piece takes as much time to make as an adult sized set! (And at $13.50/handpainted piece it is a pottery bargain!)
