a recycled teabag clipboard. i mean the wrappers.

I was more than delighted when I found Angela's teabag clipboard on Tea With Friends. It turns out that Angela and I have a lot in common: we both love tea and Mod Podge. In terms of cost, it doesn't get any cheaper. These type of clipboards can be found at the $1 store, and I'm assuming you already have Mod Podge (a safe assumption, no?). If you are not a tea drinker, well, you obviously need to start. You also need to visit Angela's blog so that she can show you what she did right here.

  3. I just want you to know that I have done two dec projects since I started reading your blog (a month ago).

    One is a metal flower tin (that had a horrible purple fly on it). I covered it with some 'mistake' numerical tags that I accidently printed. Then I covered over that with Starbucks antique writing looking tissue paper. Looks really great!

    I like this clipboard done with tea papers. Though, I'm going to use old papers from ric rac and needle packaging for a clipboard to go in my sewing room.

    THank you for the inspiration!

  5. Love this! Appeals to the tea drinker in me and my inexplicable desire for a cool clip board. :)

    1. Hi Jolie! The author must have closed her blog. But to make it, you would use tea wrappers like paper - watch my video at youtube.com/modpodgerocks for the frame, and the process is the same!
