5 Unusual Ways to Use Your Handmade Teacups
Teacups are often used to enjoy a warm, comforting beverage. But did you know that these versatile cups can also be used creatively outside of tea? In this article, we’ll explore six creative uses for your favorite handmade teacups.
For storing cotton swabs, toothbrushes or razors
Teacups are perfect for storing small items such as cotton swabs, toothbrushes or razors. Choose a cup that matches your personal style and fits the interior design of your bathroom. Reactive glazed teacups are particularly suitable for this purpose as they add a touch of natural colour and elegance to your bathroom.
As a soap dish
Looking for a convenient place to store your small soaps? Use a handmade teacup as a soap dish. Its small size makes it easy to access in the living room and you can simply place it inside the cup to keep it clean and dry. You can also use this technique to store sponges to clean your bathroom or kitchen.
For storing pens and pencils
Teacups can also be used as storage for your pens and pencils. Choose a teacup that is large enough to hold your collection of office supplies. If you are using multiple cups, you can match them based on color or pattern to add a decorative touch to your workspace.

Like a small vase for flowers
Teacups can also serve as small vases for flowers and succulents. Simply fill the cup with water and place a few flowers inside. Handmade teacups made of white porcelain or ceramic are particularly suitable for this purpose.
As a candle holder for scented candles
Our handmade teacups have already had great success hosting candles! The easiest way is to place a tea light inside the cup to create a warm and soothing atmosphere. You could also make your own candle with wax, which will undoubtedly please you but also the person who receives this handmade gift! Our “gourmandise” cups work particularly well for this use.
Conclusion
In conclusion, teacups can be used creatively outside of the kitchen. Whether you're looking to organize your workspace or add a decorative touch to your home, teacups are a must-have choice.
