12 days of curiousi-tea
Stuck for a present this winter time? Here’s how to make this 12 Days of Curiousi-tea advent calendar, a simple and festive gift for your loved ones.
Creating time: 20 minutes
Supplies:
12 different types of tea bags
12 muslin bags
12 small wooden pegs
String/Twine
Different coloured ribbon
Scissors
Black marker
Method:
First you are going to want to place your tea in the muslin bags, if you’ve got loose leaves then you can place them in the bag with a spoon or if you’ve got individual tea bags , then you can just add the tea bag in whole.
^ Filled muslin bags.
After that, tie different colours of ribbon around each muslin bag with a bow. I chose red, green, white, and gold as they are more festive however you can go for patterned ribbon or just string if you want.
Then you are going to get your wooden pegs and number them 1 to 12 and place them where you want your tea bags to go on the twine. I left a couple inches between each one.
Lastly, attach your teabags with the numbered pegs. You can move them around to get the spacing you would like.
And there you have it! The perfect present for family and friends this holiday time if you wanted to get more curious with your gift giving. You can even use other treats in the muslin bags such as chocolate or anything you can think of!
Tea was allegedly discovered in 2737 BC. it is believed that Emperor Shennong of China had some leaves fall into his cup of boiling water and drank the resulting liquid.
