Today I’ll show you my small collection of tea bag holders. Somehow I always forget to look for them at tearooms, thrift stores, antique dealers, etc. This first one is the largest in my collection and could probably double as a spoon rest. It is Portmeirion in the Botanic Garden pattern.
You can find more information on Portmeirion china here.
This one is also Portmeirion, but the size and shape is different.
To me, the shape and detail is prettier on the first one.
The last two are made in Italy and easy to find in many different designs at gift stores, etc. I have Red Hat and Christmas Poinsettia holders.

Oh, I love those tea bag holders, especially the botanical ones. Thanks for stopping by my teddy bear tea party yesterday. Glad you enjoyed your visit. The radish was fresh out of my garden where, unfortunately, the radishes are growing with great abandon this year and seem to be taking over! I was actually quite happy to sacrifice one to Cordelia Rabbit's tea party. :)
TEA BAG CADDIES ARE WONDERFUL!
I collect these also but don't have any of the ones you do! I LOVE your Portmeirion ones! My own favorites are some handpainted ones a friend had her china-painting friend do for me as a gift! I like that these tea bag holders are small and don't take up a lot of room.
Great collection. I try to look for them myself but only have two. Can't say I collect them, but I probably will!
A very cute little collection. How do you display them?
Marilyn, I don't really have them on display. Most are tucked away until I need them. You've made me wonder how others display their tea bag holders.
Love the tea bag holders. I especially like what the deffinition of simpliciTea is! That's Great!!
Patricia :o)
Thanks for visiting my blog! I love your tea holders, I don't have any, but I bet they are fun to collect, I always like to be looking for something when I antique or thrift shop.

Nice collection of tea bag holders! I have quite a few, but none of those, I really like the one with the tea cup holder!
Enjoy your crab legs! When my husband isn't home, I treat myself to Taco Bell! LOL! He doesn't like it, and I do!

LOVE your collection! The one with the teacup on top is so charming and my favorite.
The tea bag holders are lovely. I've never seen such fancy ones before. Thanks for visiting and you have a great holiday!
How pretty! It never occured to me to collect them, but actually I'm not really much of a hot tea drinker! I just like to collect the cups and tea pots! LOL!
