Step 1

Let’s get started!

Step 2

Step 1 Cut the sides off of a coffee filter so it creates a rectangle.

Step 3

Flatten out the coffee filter and cut about 1 inch on either side.

Step 4

Step 2 Place loose leaf tea on the filter.

Step 5

Step 3 Fold both long sides into the middle.

Step 6

Start by folding one of the long sides into the middle so that it covers the tea. Then repeat on the opposite side.

Step 7

Step 4 Fold the filter in half.

Step 8

Fold the filter in half to form a small rectangle.

Step 9

Step 5 Trim the top.

Step 10

Your packet will most likely be too long so you’ll want to trim some off the top to make it your desired size.

Step 11

Step 6 Fold the top corners down.

Step 12

Fold the two top corners of the filter down. This will create a triangle. Then fold the point of the triangle down.

Step 13

Step 7 Staple a string to the top folds of the packet.

Step 14

Secure the top folds by stapling them to a piece of string. Place the string in the triangle fold and then fold it over. Pull the string up and secure with a staple. Use a natural piece of string that doesn’t have dye that could leak into your tea.

Step 15

Step 8 Glue the other end of the string to a printable tea tag.

Step 16

Step 9 Serve or gift to your friends and family!
