Heart Shaped Tea Bags

You can't go wrong with a hand crafted gift combined with relaxing herbal ingredients.
If your significant other enjoys a hot cup of tea, this could be your future valentine's day project.

Supply List:
- Reusable tea/spice bags
- Loose tea
- Paper towel 
- Needle
- Cotton thread
- Red paper
- Scissors


Start this project by creating a stencil of a heart. I used a paper towel to do this.

Next, put the stencil on the tea bag, and cut around it to create a heart shape.

The results should look something like this:

Once you have the heart shapes in the tea bag material, use your needle and thread to sew the front and the back of the tea bag together, leaving an open space to add the loose tea in before completely sewing the tea bag closed.

Once you have sewed along all of the edges of the heart, added the tea and then sewed the bag shut, leave a piece of string hanging from the bag so it can be extracted from the tea cup in the future. I used a piece of red construction paper to create a little tag at the top of the string.

...Happy crafting herbal people!
