Teapots and Teddy Bears has closed

June 15th, 2011
I was out walking my dog the other day and was sad to see that our local "Teapots and Teddy Bears" store has closed down. They had a great selection of gift ideas but perhaps weren't in the best location for foot traffic. Hopefully we will see Teapots and Teddy Bears pop up somewhere else in Cloverdale. We wish the owners of "Teapots and Teddy Bears" all the best!
