Tea-Stained Tags

This is such a fun time of year.

It's the season for

all things handmade and homespun.

Here is a primitive little tag

you can add to any gift or wreath.

I even use these to tag our Christmas Stockings
with family names.

This fall I've used them on wreaths.

Using Brown Craft paper and white cardstock,

I brush instant tea granules with just a bit of water

directly on the paper.

(1/4 cup tea plus 1 or 2 Tbsp. Water)

Brush both sides of paper.

Set aside to dry.

Cut and tear the paper

into sizes and shapes you like.

I also reinforce the paper punch on back
with another piece of paper.

This wreath was a coffee theme...
made from a burlap coffee bag

You can find out how to make

the burlap wreath here.

I continued the coffee theme

with a coffee filter flower dipped in the tea

and embellishing the tag with coffee beans.

Tea-Stain and Glitter...

Now that's Farmhouse Glam.

So glad you could visit,
