Kitsch or Kewl?
I can't decide if this wabbit fambly tea set is cute-and-collectible or just gawdy-but-good-for-a-giggle.
It was a gift from somebody who figured I needed more tea sets for my collection, so I'm loathe to throw it out. It's a complete set - teapot, creamer, sugar bunny, 4 cups, saucers and little spoons. Momma wabbit's head comes off, as does sugar bunny.
It gave me a great chuckle when I unwrapped the box, and I do love bunny wabbits, but could I actually leave it out and serve tea with it? I dunno, whaddya think ... kitsch or kewl?
I always say...that if you have to ask yourself that question then they should head out to good will. Usually, if I really LIKE something I don't give a crap if anybody else thinks it tacky.

I would say kitsch! But kitsch can be cool, depending on context.
I never like popping heads off of things though, might be better on the shelf.
I found your site looking for info on Victoria mag. Aww.. I missed the competition. Good idea!

Well, I have to admit they're "cute"--but please don't ask my Wonder Woman what my face looks like when I say that word.
;-)
Of course, as an accompaniment to a collection of Peter Rabbit things, they might be slightly other than "cute".

Oh my! It could go either way, depending on how you present it...

I think it's all in how you present it.
And personally, I think it's cuter than all get out. It would also be a good way to decide who is too uptight to waste time continuing a friendship with ;)
