We’re getting ready for Pearl’s Alice in Wonderland Mad Tea Party Un-Birthday. I made some pretty linens but when I placed an empty tea cup on the table– something was missing. I went through my scrap drawer and found some ratty tulle and random pieces of felt.
A snip here, a stitch there and these sweet tulle tea bags became the perfect finishing touch.
Tulle Tea Party Tea Bags
What You’ll Need:
- Embroidery thread
- Felt
- Tulle
- Sewing machine
- Pinking shears
What to do:
Wrap the end of the embroidery thread with a small piece of felt and sew. Cut the end of the felt with pinking shears.
Cut out red felt hearts (or any shape you like.)
Double up a rectangle of tulle and fold your shape inside. Sew, enclosing your shape in a square. Use pinking shears to get your “bag” just the right size. Careful not to cut the embroidery thread.
Et Voila! No-mess Magic Love Tea!
I knew there was a reason for keeping those scraps. With two little girls in the house we will be having many tea parties for birthdays, Valentine’s Days, rainy days…
We might run out of chamomile but Tulle Tea is forever.
