I've made things with teabags before but that was a few years ago so newer blog followers may not have seen them... I gathered some teabags over a few days. Rinsed them and dried them. Split them open and tipped out the tea (that went onto my garden). Then began the fun. I cut butterflies from the teabags. The bodies are a brown envelope and the antennae are snips of embroidery threads...I try to waste absolutely nothing.. :-)
When I saw teabags I seemed to recall that you had done something with them before, it wasn't butterflies was it?, can't remember.

ReplyDeleteHow lovely and delicate! I'm afraid I have the same mindset - "I could use that to make xyz" - it can be a curse but as you show it can also be a very good thing :)
