Description:
... Mystery Tea Cup I love Celestial Seasonings teas! But they don't come with a printed label. Shall we play a game of "Mystery Tea Cup"? For this swap, we'll be making wrappers for and swapping Celestial Seasonings teas bags. Make your wrappers pretty, maybe even hint at what the flavor may be. Inside your wrapper, reveal the name and flavor of the tea bag it contains. Let's swap 3 tea bags to 2 partners. (Totalling 6 tea bags in mystery wrappers.) Please send at least 2 different teas, if not all 3 different. Be prepared to be surprised! Sender's choice.

Could we send other brands that don't come with a printed label? (like Republic of Tea)

What about loose tea?

Sounds super fun!

Well... I think we could... but it's not a democracy! ;)

But I would vote 'no' to loose teas, even though I like them better... that's a different swap to me.

Good questions!
Yes to other "non-wrapper" yet sealed tea bags.
No loose teas for this swap.

I love celestial seasonings and I love this swap!

Sorry, I have never heard of this brand... This seems more like a US-region swap.

hollycm6 05/10/2011 #

No, I'm sure you must have teas in other countries that are in individual bags, but without decorated paper wrappers on each?

Watching! Love to make these wraps!!

Just wanted to voice something about the tea labels. We have celestial in Denmark (Europe) and we also have other kinds of teas without the paper wrappers. So this is definitly joinable for people outside the US.

My mistake in understanding "celestial"!. Tea in individual bags without wrappers is available everywhere, of course.

What about Lipton pyramid teabags for this swap? No wrappers , just a little tag on them?

LadyStephanie 05/24/2011 #

I'm not very familiar with the Lipton pyramid teabags. Sounds like they may be hard to wrap? Most of the Celestial Seasonings teas come in yummy-licious herbal flavors. So if you feel they are something special and want to share, be my guest.
