The drawer came apart after being exposed to winter weather. I plan to make another one and keep it under my covered porch. I used a marine grade silicone, (purchased at Walmart), to attach the teapot. It stayed on through the heat of summer and all of the snow!

So many people think well, why don't these people just a get a job, but they have no idea. The husband of a friend of mine lost his job of many years and took a much lower-paying job just for the benefits--who wants to hire someone in their 60's??
