Sit for a cuppa

Stool Or on a cuppa! I've shared my love of tea, and tea time accessories, before, with the Jaws-themed infuser and the Ants on my ... cup and saucer, so it's no surprise these tea party/tea cup stools, which have been making their way round the blogosphere, caught my eye!

Inspired by Alice in Wonderland, the moulded plastic cups were designed by the UK's Holly Palmer. They can be used indoors or out.

At 41 cm high and 58 cm in diameter, the stools offer both adult and child-friendly seating.

With 11 colour options, it should be easy to find one that can complement your decor, or for an additional fee, you can use the colour matching service for a custom hue.

And, if you're not sold yet, Palmer even created wall hooks and a tree for storing the cups when not in use! How cute is that?

Visit Palmer's website for product and shipping details. Cups start around $250 each, and can be shipped internationally.

I think they'd be adorable tucked away in a garden or clustered in a child's room. Or hanging on the wall in my living room.

When I looked at your photo, I didn't catch it. Why you took a picture of a tea cup?
After I scan through your article, the tea cup [not a tea cup] is a stood. I just find myself so dump.!!
I like your idea to play around the visual ratio [or human scale].
