The fun continued well past the Afternoon Tea, as I came home to a lovely e-mail from an old University friend Devon, who, unknowing of my afternoon adventures, asked if I liked tea. I replied "Yes!" ....and this morning I woke up to find a gift basket on my doorstep filled with these...
Yay! So much fun! The reason for the promo was that they are doing this fun event ....
I may go to this - It sounds like fun. But anyhow, back to the teas - I'm pretty darn excited to have this awesome collection. Here's what I did, because the teas smelt SOOOO good, I cracked open the box, and divided up the packets as I was going to give some to my sister .... but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that this would make a perfect, affordable holiday gift for friends this year. Because honestly, who has money to buy EVERYONE gifts. So, thanks to Twinnings, and that gift basket I got thanks to my friend Devon, I have come up with a DIY project of giving teas ... What you do is this.
1. Buy an assortment of teas like those that Twinnings gave me
2. Buy some sweet little cotton bags [You can find them on Etsy, or in my shop]
3. Get a stamp set [Like here] and you stamp someones name on the bag.
Stamp anything you want onto the little bags...
Honestly, they make the sweetest gifts! AND, they smell SO nice. [Not to mention super economical].
Because it's fun to share, I've divided up the tea bags and I'll just randomly pick 2 comments from the blog comments between now, and next Monday, and you'll get a sample bag like the one I made for my friends above. I'll even stamp your name on the bag so it's personalized! Because personalized stuff is fun. :)
