I love tea. It’s the first thing I drink when I get up in the morning. There’s something about the aroma that makes me want to snuggle up in a blanket. If you haven’t tried loose-leaf teas, you are missing out my friend, and I highly recommend you to try it.
The great thing about these tea bags is that they are so easy to make, but they are a little time consuming. So be patient while threading the tea bag! You can also make them in any shape for any holiday or event!
You’ll need:
- White coffee filters
- A piece of paper
- Needle
- Pink or red thread
- Scissors
- Loose leaf tea
- Foam heart glitter stickers
STEPS:
- Start by drawing and cutting a heart onto a piece of paper. Then trace it over the center of a coffee filter.(Tip: stack and cut several coffee filters at one time).
- Layer two filters together and take your threaded needle, and push it through the top of the two sheets. Make sure you have a knot at the end of the thread and that you start the stitch on top of the heart.
- Sew around the heart– always pulling the needle up, leaving a small space and pushing the needle down, closing that space. Stop when you’re about 2/3 of the way done.
- Scoop up a tablespoon of loose tea and fill the tea bag.
- Once the tea bag is full continue stitching the heart closed. When you’ve reached the end tie it into a double knot. Don’t cut the thread when you are done! Keep it as a tea bag holder so you don’t need to attach a new one. Determine how long you want your thread to be and trim it.
- Place the end of the thread in between two heart glitter stickers. Press firmly, making sure the thread is secure in between the two stickers.
