Find The Teapot Game

Frances and Eleanor, I have a game for you!
The fairies have been busy lately as they have been entertaining at one another's homes. They have a special teapot that was given to them by the "Queen of the Fairies" many many years ago. Her name was Queen Hermione, and she was very beautiful. All fairies are beautiful, but it was universally accepted that Queen Hermione was especially exquisite. She had sparkling coal black hair that caught the moonbeams as she skipped through the trees and it would cause the whole forest to glisten.

Queen Hermione gave to the fairies her special teapot when it was time for her to go to the Enchanted Lands. The teapot has been used since that time for special events and long-awaited celebrations. You can see the teapot in the picture up above. It is not a very good picture of the teapot itself, but that is because you are to notice its shape and not its design.

But now back to our story....

Since it is now high-summer, the teapot has been in constant demand because the fairies love their evening tea parties. On this evening, Mr. & Mrs. Wren invited the Oak Hills fairies to come to their house for tea. Mrs. Wren had just finished redecorating her new home and she was very proud of it. The Wrens were noted for being a little too pleased with themselves, but it was agreed that Mrs. Wren had done a fabulous job selecting colors, carpeting and window treatments for her new home. The children were growing quickly and it was time for them to have an open house before the eldest flew from the nest.

Excalibur Oak had been the last fairy to host an event so he brought the teapot to the Wren's house. As the evening darkened, and the fireflies began to dance through the trees, all the Oak Hills fairies gathered at the Wren's for a relaxing evening of mint tea and acorn scones.
Can you find the teapot in this picture?
Tomorrow I will post another picture of the teapot as it travels to another fairy party. It may be harder to find the teapot and that is why I want you to learn the shape because you can usually spot a shape quicker than you can a design.
Luv,
Mimi
