my first painted teabag
This will just be a quick post today, since I've got my annual monster of a chest cold and I can't stop coughing. Thanks to my cold, though, I've been drinking lots and lots of tea, and I've been saving the used tea bags. Have you ever done this? The tea stains the tea bags in the most beautiful way, and each type of tea leaves a different shade of stain.
In South Africa, artisans use these tea bags to create the most beautiful art. The result has the look of ethnic textiles, don't you think?
Below are a few examples I found on-line, showing what beautiful things can be created by decorating a used tea bag.

Aren't they fabulous?
I'll be back to more regular blogging and visits to your blogs soon. In the mean time, I hope you have a great weekend.
