This week I started making a miniature tea set for my little cousin. I made 5 cups, a creamer, and I would love to make a teapot. This seems to be very challenging. I like that this video shows how to throw each part of the teapot. In this video, the person makes one large hole for the spout. However, I typically see people making many small holes. I think I will make many small holes. I am going to attempt this on Tuesday in the studio.
Small holes made with a fettling knife allows you to use loose tea... the holes act as a strainer. The lid is a drop in, inset style. You could also create a lid that fits over the rim... Good luck!
