Tealicious

Blackened
These are from yesterdays stewing
with bottle tops and vinegar

Bottoms only in a touch of black brew

washing

I like to remove the seams from the teabags

Black brew and puffball dyed

experiments
all have a little dande bags applied
top with wax bottom with glue

Paper dipped in puffball dye after rusting

brushed with concentrated puffball dye
rusted after
india ink brushed on

paper rusted only

recycled paint rag dyed with puffball

little waxed dande bag pockets

up close

and personal

a little book of tea bags
and thats what happens to the edges
just blowing in the breeze

pages

wind closed

waxed cover

stories

poems

More Tea

Laying out to dry
Tea bags and psuedo coffe bags

Tea Tags
And bags that didnt make the grade soaking
for a retry

Some emptys

And behind some delicious rusty metal plates

The thing is I don't actually drink tea
Well not real tea
though ocasionally
there will be some form of green tea
and of course jasmine tea at Yum Cha
but at home it is Licorice Tea
or Coffee
But as I am trying to wean myself off coffee
for the moment
I am down to one a day
My alternative is Dande Roast
a blend of Roasted Dandelion and
Chicory Root
with a little Organic Cocoa added
It will do for now

But the upside awesome little coloured bags
