Another super lo-fi video of the Tea Tree making me a cup of tea. This was another thing I was worried people wouldn’t know what to do with. But they drank 3 gallons of hot tea (in Phoenix!) so, I guess it was successful. It was fun to see full-grown adults wandering around with doll tea cups and saucers. I had full-sized cups on there, but people wanted to drink teeny tea. I’m glad. It added to the Seussy surreality of the event.

Here’s a full-sized pic of it:

Notice the umbrella handles coming out of the corduroy bark roots. My sister sewed the bark/roots. It was my nephew’s idea to put the umbrella handles at the end. I don’t have a picture of the giant zipper in the back. I like a tree with a good zipper tab.

Here’s Caralie drinking from a doll-sized cup:

I especially liked it when people chose the doll cups and a standard saucer. Good times:
