Another Tea House!

I am fiding that these little houses are fun to make and very much aprreciated as gifts! I hope to have one ready to add to my ETSY store soon! This one is a bit shorter than the first one that I made. I filled it with several types of calming herbal teas and gifted it to a friend who is going thru a lot of changes right now. She was very pleased..!!!

I cut my own tea pot stamp which I stamped on white tissue before adding it to the wet fabric paper. It is always amazing that the white tissue just dissappears when it is covered with the glue!!!!
I found a wonderfully retro button to attatch to the front for the closure and Haku seems to enjoy having his picture taken with it!
Happy Monday all!
Give away will be announced in the next post!! Stay tuned!

  1. I love your latest tea house! That filagree (stamp?), the tea pot, and the button on the front, floating on the top of the rich layers give this tea house good depth. I love your color choices throughout, including the thread.
