    Hey I love watching craft videos....a tip for shiny stickers or magazine images can be put on the paper before the tea bag is put on on it will keep the shine from showing. Happy crafting.

    I don't drink tea or cofee but have used them to dye paper, wondering what to do with the bag. I also kept the tags with the string to use somewhere. Marker pens are great to use if you don't have ink pads. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Hi I've been playing with tea bags also and putting an image on one side and not covering it with tea bag but leaving it exposed and then smooshing the gluey tea bag up to the edges of the image. I'm excited to start trying some roundish images. I love how these can look mysterious when covered completely - enveloped? Happy New Year! ❇️

    Lovely idea for sure! I do have one question. You mentioned diluting the glue with 1/3 water, but then I saw you take straight from the glue bottle when you were gluing them at the end? Was that straight glue, then? 😊

    Love this! Just wondering if your stamped ink ones bleed when you glue them? Water based I am assuming?

    • @4chicagogrl
      @4chicagogrl  Рік тому +1

      Good question! I meant to address that further actually. You definitely want to use waterproof ink for stamping, because I used both regular and waterproof and the regular ones did bleed a bit, whereas the waterproof ones were fine.

    @terrinichols2738 Рік тому

    Thank you for sharing your ideas! I loved it!! I’m curious as to why you use glue? Does it seep thru the tea bag and make everything stick together so it’s just more flat? If you don’t use glue, and just sew it, would the result be more puffy? I can’t wait to try! Also I’ll try putting the sticker on the book page, behind the tea bag!

    • @4chicagogrl
      @4chicagogrl  Рік тому

      Yes the glue holds it all together. If you don't use glue it might work but sewing may be kind of fiddly. Let us know if you try either idea!

  • @sheilabartlett6044

    I forgot to mention about the shiny magazine page or sticker, if you paint it with clear gesso it will eliminate the shine. You can make homemade gesso, just UA-cam it.

      So far I still have what I’ve made in a little box and I just look at them now and then, wanting to make more, lol! But the idea is as embellishments in junk journals and other such paper crafts and little art decorations. But I imagine there are a million ways to use them! Add one or two in a card to a loved one as a fun little gift! ❤️😊
