Gorgeous as always, Helen. (BTW now subscribed to your channel.) I love using teabags in art and after saving them for ages, I now have two whole 9-litre Really Useful Boxes full of emptied used teabags! Enough to last several lifetimes of art, probably. I saw a video recently (sorry, can't remember whose it was) where she made a slit along one end of the teabag and slipped a small piece of book page inside. She stuck various tiny pictures etc. on the front and stitched around the edges. I have made a whole load of these using images from greetings cards - both round and square teabags - you could also stamp or draw. They can be stuck onto journal cards etc. You can also paint the stamped/drawn on used teabags with a diluted solution of PVA glue which makes them dry much more transparent and with the texture of vellum. Fabulous! I think I invented the following technique because I've never seen anyone else do this: I always use used teabags in my art (love the stains on them and the colour), and even use the drying process to produce something useful. I lay out wet used teabags on a piece of watercolour paper (also recycled - the backs of my hubby's rejects because he never thinks to paint on the back lol!), either scrunching them up or spreading them flat according to the result I want, and leave them to dry for several days. The tea stains the paper with gorgeous shapes which you can then doodle over. I've done a lot of Zentangle and used this to create tiny pieces of art, following the shapes of the stains. I've generated so much used tea from emptying all those teabags that there's far more than I can use for art, so it goes in the compost for the garden. Tea really helps a lot of plants grow. I have a few sheets of kitchen paper in the bottom of my splat box. Over time these "mature" nicely with all the ink spraying and spattering, and can be used for art. Each one is 2 or 3 ply so you get more for your bucks! I'm another great fan of Natasha of Treasure Books. She's brilliant, and a really lovely lady. I see that you've given the link for those gorgeous vintage bottle stamps and shall definitely be getting those. Where did the dress form stamp come from? Love that.

Like what you did with the teabags. Subscribed and look forward to watching more of your ideas! TFS

Very nice, I love watching Natasha's videos as well.

These are really sweet. I have quite a few saved tea bags so I'm keen to try making some of these soon. Thanks for the inspiration.

Do you know the names or the brand name of the stamps u used? They are beautiful
