This was fun to make. This started out as an old piece of Eco Art I made a few years ago; the backing is a cardboard insert that was inside of an old picture frame; it's hard to see from the photo but the "square" in the middle of the cardboard sticks up about 1/3 of an inch for a 3-D effect. I took off the flower decorations that were on it to use in making homemade valentine's cards this year. What to do with the now-naked cardboard insert?
I opened up several used/dried tea bags, emptied the tea into a container, and glued the tea bag papers onto the cardboard backing. At first I thought to sprinkle just a small amount of the used/dried tea on top of the heavily glue-coated tea papers, but a whole pile spilled out and stuck to the glue. Oh well, I thought, and kept dumping dried used tea onto the project until the whole thing was coated. Let dry a couple of days, then glued the tea bag tags in a bunch on top. It smells nice, too--like tea!
Fun and easy to make!
