Making art using tea bags is kind of like going on an art mini-vacation. You have your regular work, but you stop to take a break and make art on a tea bag. It’s quick and you feel like you’ve been a way for a while. I like to use a tea bag for an art-making mini-vacation because: Tea bags are s
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

Today I felt my collection of tea bags calling me and I think I may have started a new obsession with tea bag art. I am in love with tea bag art <3 p=""> I'm even thinking of starting a tea bag art only journal.
Firstly, I would like to say a big thank you for all the good wishes I have received over the last week, your visits and kind words have meant a lot to me. When I knew I was imminently going into hospital I prepared a handful of teabags! I ironed Vilene on to the back of each one, and added some fabric and machine stitching to them. Now that I am recuperating I have my bag of prepared teabags and a bag of 'bits and bobs' by me so I can sit and quietly decorate them with beads, braids and embroidery. It's been nice having a gentle activity to do while I'm on enforced rest! The theme is the Winter Garden, in case you hadn't guessed, and this is what is on my desk this week for WOYWW!
Use an everyday material (coffee and tea bags) to stain, stamp, stitch, and stack to add both visual and physical texture and create unique works of art.
These are recycled tea bags! You have to see these examples of an amazing, ongoing, tradition of tea bag art, sculpture, embroidery, and stitching.

Bowls made from used tea bags, printed with intaglio inks.
Early this year, I started a visual diary called "363 Days of Tea". My goal was two-fold: to push my creative practice and to share it on social media, hoping to spark a different kind of inspiration. The used tea bag is not very attractive.

For an upcoming show, I want to create oversized dragonflies. My first challenge is to make the wings using un-steeped (white) tea bags. I want the wings to have a translucent look so you can see through them but crispy and brittle, not flexible like plastic. I've tried many products that looked
