Tea Bag Wrappers

I like to save tea bag wrappers for craft projects. You never know when these small pieces of paper will come in handy.P9010797 This morning I needed a thank you card in a hurry, so I grabbed my bag of wrappers and five minutes later I had a little card.

My friend Angela at Tea With Friends, has made some fabulous things using tea bag wrappers, including a covered clip board, flowers and a wonderful teatime wall hanging that was published in Cloth, Paper, Scissors magazine.

So don’t just toss those wrappers, get creative with them.

  1. What a great idea! You have my mind already running with an idea. I just took a class on copper foil and glass, wouldn't that be fun to do with a teabag inside to hang on the tea Christmas tree? Fun!!!

  3. Oh, how cute. I never think to save them. Really with all the junk for crafting I have piled everywhere that I NEVER get to, I think I will pass on it anyway. LOL!!!
