Small Art.
Your Materials.
Something Worth Keeping.

Simple stitches + fabric scraps = your story, made into meaningful small art pieces in under an hour on a tea bag.

Remember that box of fabric scraps you've been saving?

Those precious bits of your grandmother's apron or your child's first Halloween costume?

Now imagine incorporating those meaningful pieces into intimate works of art on a tea bag, each no bigger than your palm.

That's the magic of tea bag art – where every stitch and scrap carries a memory.

✨ This Course Is For You If…

• You have a collection of fabric scraps, each one with a story attached

• You want to create something meaningful without the pressure of a large, complicated project

• You enjoy working with your hands and love getting quick, satisfying results

• You want to try something new without investing in a lot of expensive supplies

• You crave quiet studio time making things that hold memory and meaning

• You're a lifelong crafter or artist ready to learn a fresh, small-scale approach that you'll return to again and again

Here's a look at what's possible, from my worktable and from students who started exactly where you are.

💌 What Makes This Course Different

This isn't just a technique class. It's an invitation to make small art that holds the things you love most, the fabrics that matter, the buttons you’ve saved, the colors that feel like you.

I've spent years figuring out what unusual materials can do. I sewed, I stitched, I worked in mixed-media journals — and I've always believed that the best art is made at your worktable, with the things you already have.

Tea bag art is my favorite proof of that. In under an hour, with a handful of scraps and a needle and thread, you can make something genuinely worth keeping.

• Step-by-step video lessons — easy to follow at any skill level

• No pressure to buy new supplies — we start with your stash

• 100% self-paced — learn on your schedule, revisit lessons anytime

• Lifetime access including any future updates to the course

⭐️ The Five Course Modules

Part 1

Gather What You Have

You probably have all you need! In this module you'll gather the goodies already in your studio — fabric scraps, threads, buttons, bits of trim — and see just how much you already have to work with. No need to go out and buy a bunch of stuff.

Part 2

Layer Your Creative Home

Find your creative home. I use a sewing machine, and that's my process, but it doesn't have to be yours. I'll walk you through several options so you can choose the approach that feels right for the way you like to work.

Part 3

Stitch the Stitches

No complicated stitches here, just three basic, easy-to-follow embroidery stitches that add beautiful detail and definition to your tea bag. I'll show you exactly how to use them on both paper and fabric.

Part 4

Tell Your Story

This is my favorite part. You'll have a few fun options to choose from, and this is where the meaning really comes in. Take your heart straight to the tea bag art. This is where your piece becomes yours.

Part 5

Finish and Display Your Work

Now it's time to show off what you've made. I'll walk you through mounting and displaying your pieces on a small canvas, as a greeting card, in a journal, or as a gift someone will treasure.

📦 What You'll Need

Worried you won't have the "right" supplies? You almost certainly do have them. I'm all about working with what you have; experimenting is half the fun. A printable list is included in the course.
