I could be mistaken but I think Red Rose Tea doesn't make these sweet little cardboard tea bag tags anymore. Eveyone seems to have gone with the paper ones now and I admit I do thow those away.

But years ago I started saving these more substantial rose tags simply because I thought they were lovely and might someday inspire me in some creative way.

Long story short...The cardboard base is from from the post office. It is the empty roll from the priority stickers they graciously gave me and I used up every one. First, I covered the cuff with the red plastic netting from a Chef's Pride sweet potato bag, then glued the tags in place. As you might notice, I left the little staples from the strings intact. This trashion accessory is basically all rubbish except for the glue. If I can apply some kind of protection or sealer successfully to it, I will offer it for sale.

UPDATE: Currently in my etsy shop Saraphina sale priced at $5.99
