Briar Rose Tea Gift

Who doesn't love a cup of tea?
Buying a ready made package of gourmet tea or making your own, like my Briar Rose blend, can easily be put together in a decorative cup and saucer and cellophane.

Here's what you will need...

1 teacup and saucer (vintage finds are great for the frugal minded!)
package of tea
2 cinnamon sticks
piece of cellophane

OPTIONAL:
Briar Rose Tea Blend
1 part loose tea leaves (I love rooibos!)
1 part peppermint leaves
1 part lemon balm leaves
1 part rosepetals
1 part lavender buds
1 small muslin bag
Place tea blend in muslin bag and tie shut

Arrange bag of tea in the teacup along with cinnamon sticks.
Center in cellophane and tie ends up with decorative ribbon.
I happened to see these really cute dried oranges
that look beautiful with the gift!
