I am back in Portland from my week long trip to San Francisco. Though I was working with Creativebug most of the week and being filmed for my upcoming series on wedding decor, I was able to spend Friday and Saturday enjoying the city, the art and craft stores as well as drinking in the Impressionists exhibit at the Legion of Honor museum. I always feel so inspired creatively when I travel and this trip was no exception!
Last Tuesday I posted my Mother’s Day Brunch for my 12 Months of Martha series. For this setting, I added my own printable touches that included this Mother’s Day tea tag. Today I am not only sharing the printable tag, but wanted to share a great idea on how to create your own pretty tea bags with loose tea and cheese cloth. This brand of tea sells their tea bags in a style very similar to this, and I just adore the homemade touch to this pretty Mother’s Day gift idea. Here are the steps below to make your own tea bags. Every time your mom makes a cup of tea, she will be reminded of your sweet sentiment. The printable is available by clicking the button at the end of this post. I printed onto a card stock, trimmed and folded and used a touch of hot glue to attach them to the end of the strings. Of course if you want to use pre-made tea bags, you could simply glue these sweet tags over the top of the purchased ones. Enjoy! ~ Lia

I love this! About how big did you cut the cheesecloth squares? How much tea per bag?
They were about 4″x4″ and then I filled them with the same amount of loose tea I would use for one cup.
any type of particular string
I used bakers twine since it is food safe.

Perfect for my mom, because she loves tea and most of the diys for mother day are sweets or something like that ♥
Thank you
That is a great point! This mom here (as in moi) needs to cut down on the sweets and drink more tea. 😉

Wonderful idea! Thanks for sharing. What type of paper did you use to print the tags? And where did you buy the tea can?
The tags are on a white card stock. The can of loose leaf tea is Mariage Freres which I purchased in Paris, but I have seen them at tea shops here in the US.

Wow this is a beautifull Idea! Its a super must try for this upcoming mothers day in Mexico! Hey also I think those are the most beautifull teacups ive ever seen! Where did u get them? Thanks for this great idea!
Thanks Anna! The teacups were from Anthropologie.com. We have a store here in Portland.
Love this idea! Where did you get the fabric to hold the loose leaves?
That is cheese cloth and you can find it at kitchen stores or even some grocery stores.

[…] Is your mom a tea drinker? Here is a Mother’s Day gift idea she will love! Lia Griffith made these wonderful Mother’s Day tea tags that she has provided as a free printable, which she attached to some handmade tea bags. If you’re short on time (or just don’t have any loose tea laying around), you could also attach these tags over top of the existing tags on pre-made tea bags. Aren’t they gorgeous?

Absolutely Beautiful! 🙂
Thanks Joanne!
très jolie idée, merci
You are so welcome! You have the BEST tea in France! 😉
Gorgeous! Any chance you could post a printable label for the can?
Possibly. I will see how things come together next week. 😉
What a lovely idea.
I love to sip a good cup of tea and so does my daughter. This would make a sweet gift for her on Mother’s Day (She’s been a mommy for almost 2 years). I know she would love it.
Really, those tags could be used for any special day; just change the name of the holiday or occasion. 🙂
Hummm. Good ideas there. 😉
Beautiful!!
Thanks Kelsey!
I was going to say the same thing as onel. my dad is a huge tea fan!
Well that is two votes for a Father’s Day version then. 😉
THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!! These will be perfect for our Single /Military Moms Brunch at church!!! Bless you!!!
So good to hear they will work!
Such a sweet idea, my 11 yr old grandzughter is a tea buff…has her own little tea pot….so you can imagine how she will love these, thank you for sharing x
Wow! That is really sweet.
We are headed to San Francisco! Do you have any recommendations for must see arts and craft stores?
Definitely go to Flax. It is quite large and you can spend some time there. The other place I went to was over in Berkley, mostly because they stock the floral crepe paper I use. It is called Castles in the Air and is on 4th Ave with all the other wonderful shops.
You seem to think of everything—lovely teabag idea! Glad you had such a wonderful trip!
I do try. I always have my eyes open for good ideas. 😉
Well now, isn’t that just the cutest thing! Should have known you’d take it up a notch and Lia-ify it!! 🙂
Haha. But of course. 😉
These are beautiful, Lia! I can keep this for Father’s Day (my dad is a huge fan of tea).
Well, maybe I will have to make a father’s day version too.
