Cupcakes and Cashmere’s Valentines Tea Bags provide an alternative to the DIY holiday scene. While many make handmade cards or cookies for the February 14th holiday, blogger Emily Schuman has turned to warm drinks.
These Valentine’s Day tea bags come with small customizable messages. The creation process is quite simple as she used thick paper, pens, needles, thread and loose leaf tea.
These products make it easy to tailor the presents as one can write any message desired across the front of the cases. Schuman added her own personal touch with a heart that reads “Love you” along the handle, allowing users of these DIY products to easily dip the tea in and out of mugs.
