Over this past winter I became a regular tea drinker. Every Wednesday night I would brew a pot of
Calm Tea and drink it all while catching up on Downton Abbey. Next to my Friday night
bottle glass or two of red wine, it was my favourite part of the week.
Once the tin was emptied I tried to peel the label off to use it for stamps and stickers but quickly realized it wasn't going to be an easy endeavor. The solution was to slather on some glue and stick some of my origami paper onto the label.

The best part, other than having pretty storage for my collected stamps, is the smell of lemon and mint that wafts up every time open it up.
On a slightly related side note, I looked at the list of ingredients in the tea and I have many of the plants growing in my garden. Perhaps I'll try my hand at saving leaves for tea.
Have you reused a coffee or tea tin for storage? Send me a link, I'd love to have a look!
