Me and Martha Monday Project #12

Since we have entered into a new season I thought it would be fun to do a fall wedding project and what says fall better than tea and hot drinks!!! This was not a actual DIY project on Martha Stewart Weddings however, I found it under the inspiration page and really like it. The design that is show in the photography on the left is very classy to me, but I don't like the idea of having open tea bags sitting out. I personally would not use mine if I were a guest at this wedding. So for my project I chose a tea bag that is in it's own bag and went well with my cloth napkins. Which brings up my ideas. If you like this idea you could go anyway with it. I am going to use a bag and napkin that will "go" with the color theme of a wedding, however, you could also do a tea that could be considered the signature drink of the couple. I also think that there are several way you can display them for the guest. I am choosing to tuck them in the napkin so that they would be at each place setting. (It's really my favorite way to showcase favors) and in a coffee cup for those who may not have napkins at each setting.

I used a cream paper and outlined the tag in black. I did this for two reason, one my paper was very close to the color of my napkin and I wanted to put some separation between them, and two, I like my tags as straight as possible and having the lines for cutting helps A TON!!!
