... that, having fulfilled its purpose as provider of one of life's essentials, that a wet, soggy teabag can have a secondary existence as an art material ?
which is my way of saying that I opted for tea staining rather than paint to antique the edges of Mum's photo:
first person to see the finished piece was Tara aka fiestywench who brought Sunday lunch
Ricotta fritters with tart citrus sauce - and then settled in for some post-prandial knitting and some Dragon [chilli-flavoured] Chai
all in all a good way to spend a sunday arvo
What a bright idea.
ReplyDeleteAlso a lovely photo of Tara.
Yes, yes all that but recipes too please!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a good idea - well done! Tea bags can be used antiquing many fibres - paper, cloth and yarn!
ReplyDeleteTara doesn't look too feisty in that photo!
lol I was going to suggest tea dying!
ReplyDeleteAs we like to say, "My mouse was waddling" over the fritters, mmm, ricotta.
