It looks like we have six more weeks of winter, huh? I can’t exactly complain about the winter we’ve been having here in LA, but I know a good portion of you could use some warming up right about now. Since I’m a big tea drinker I wanted to make these DIY Heart-Shaped Tea Bags for Valentine’s Day. I plan to put them in little gift baskets for friends with a card that says something sweet and silly like You’re Tea-rrific and You warm my heart. Right now though, I plan to enjoy a cup with one of Jaime’s heart scones.
Learn how to make these DIY heart tea bags after the jump…
You will need:
Coffee Filters
Thread
Needle
Wood Hearts
Hot Glue Gun and Glue
Gather your coffee filters.
Cut hearts out of your filters.
Hand sew or machine stitch around the edges, leaving about a 1/2 inch open to pour in the tea.
Fill with loose tea.
Stitch close.
Sew a thread from the top of the tea bag and leave a 1-2 inch tail. I also cut the tags off a couple of other tea bags I had.
Hot glue the piece of thread between two hearts for the tag at the end.
Once the tags are dry they are ready to use.
So sweet!!
