They're really cheaply made so they don't make the most beautiful items, but a few years ago I hot glued a bunch together and painted them with a neat design to make a desk organizer.

On closer inspection the items in the tea are: chamomile, blackberry, lemongrass, rose petals, mint, lemon balm, hibiscus, lavender and marigold. I only have lemon balm, mint, lavender and marigold and the moment.

I have two tea tins that I use for art supplies (one for sharpeners and shavings and one for my kneaded erasers).

The tea tin looks so sweet and I love that it's scented. What do you keep in there now? I have chamomile growing in my garden but I am terrible at harvesting anything but my grapes and peaches.
