I drink hot tea and I like lots of different flavors. I buy different brands, like Stash, Steep, or Twinings. All three brands have tea bags that are the same size, no staples, and have similar texture. Since I drink so much tea, it always pains me to throw out the used tea bags (I think “Oh no, th

Tea bag tea is always inferior to loose leaf tea. The tea that goes into bags is called dust, and quite literally includes particles that fall to the floor and are swept up during machine processing. There is no delicate way to put it - dust grade tea is the cheap left overs. We are yet to come across tea bag tea that

I figured I'd better get this posted before the kitty completely wrecked it by knocking it repeatedly off my display table, batting it around the floor, and chewing it to death! {New Social Media Definition: proCATStination...waiting to take pictures and post them to your blog, until AFTER you've rescued your subject matter from imminent destruction at the paws and/or jaws of feline(s).} Anyway, I learned about this adorable pouch thru a fellow demonstrator, who was demoing it at Stampin' Up!'s San Antonio Regional. Unfortunately, I was demoing something else at the same time, so it took me a while to catch up with the instructions for making it. There's a place for a card in the front, a teabag in the back, and some cookies in the center! [Click any image to see it full-size.] Pouch Instructions: Start with 8-1/2"x12" paper or card stock. Our 12x12 Designer Series Papers are ideal, not only for size, but also because of the contrast the double-sided patterns provide. Score parallel to the 8-1/2" side at 1-1/4", 2-1/2", 5", 7", 9-1/2", and 10-3/4". Score parallel to the 12" side at 2-1/2" and at 6". Cut the 2-1/2" squares from each corner. Fold the four center corners in half diagonally, each tip pointing towards the center. Fold in the short sides. Fold in the long sides. Fold back each top edge. Punch holes thru top for string or bow. If you want to put treats in a bag in the center, punch your holes close together, so they can gather the top of your bag when you pull them tight. Place cookies or treats in 3x5 Small Cello Bag, then tuck bag in the center of your pouch, and then tie your knot or bow. (TIP: tying a bow allows the recipient to open without ripping.) Okay, I'm gonna show you a quick video walk-through for a visual. I know you're a busy crafter, so I'll keep it short and to the point. I'm a busy crafter, too, so please excuse the rough cut of the video. Really, you should only need to see it once, and after that, you'll easily be able to refer to the text instructions above. Seriously, you NEED the FREE Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper, and the FREE Everyday Enchantment Ribbon & Brad Pack for this project. During Sale-a-Bration, you can pick one item FREE for each $50 you spend, or if you Host a Workshop with $400 in sales, you get the paper, ribbon/brad pack, AND a coordinating stamp set...ALL FOR FREE! My teenage daughter is not a froo-froo person, but immediately upon seeing this project, she said the paper and the coordinating ribbon make this project scream "Mother's Day".

Why make your own teabags? We’d like to believe that the tea industry has it all sorted with safe sterile tea bags for the billions of daily cups of tea consumed around the globe. Unfortunately, this is not so as a recent study conducted at McGill University in Montreal, Canada has indicated. Researchers found that when a plastic teabag was left in 95 degrees centigrade water to make one cup of tea up to 3.1 billion nanoplastic, and 11.6 billion microplastic particles were released. That’s why DIY reusable tea bags make sense. And if you’re thinking, “Oh I don’t really
