O.k. browsing the internet today I came across a really cute idea. These homemade tea bags are just awesome. They would make incredible Christmas gifts for the tea lover for sure.
I found them at Bonzai Aphrodite, which may be added to my top ten, because the blog, images, and stuff is amazing. Hey, you know I am impressed; I said awesome, incredible, and amazing in the first 55 words! Basically you take unbleached cheesecloth and fill it with your own personal tea blend. The result is an adorable, whimsical, cozy looking array of tea bags that would look fantastic in an apothecary jar on the counter!
If you are searching for great ideas check out this one. Make them for yourself or your family and friends (or both). Pick out some loose leaf teas that seem like they would go together at Teavana or Adagio, or anther good company and then try them in different combinations until you get the ratio you want.
You could even put them in a apothecary jar of some sort and make a label for them with the name of you custom tea on it. If you grow your own herbs you could even mix your own herbal tea blend.
Wow..thoughts are flowing…NOW I am inspired!
