I made these cute tea bag treat holders a while back for Mother’s Day and then recently to give as special “pillow gifts” when I went to Stampin’ Up!’s 30th Anniversary celebration. They really are sweet. If you have an envelope punch board, they are quick to put together. By request, I filmed a video tutorial on how to make them. I always say I am better with paper than technology, so as you watch, you will see that I encountered that “iPhone storage full” prompt. I almost made it to the end of the video before it popped up and stopped filming. Not to worry! All you need to know is included in the video. Below the link are the measurements you will need to make your own tea bag treat holders
