Now that you have all your supplies ready, let’s move on to the next step of the tutorial.

Step 1: Gather the Materials

To begin, make sure you have all the required materials within reach. This will ensure that the crafting process goes smoothly and without interruption. Lay out your scrapbook paper, doilies, tea bags, honey sticks, and other decorations. Having everything organized and easily accessible will make the rest of the tutorial much more enjoyable.

Step 2: Prepare the Teabags

Now that we have our materials ready, let’s start preparing the teabags. Follow these steps:

1. Choosing Tea Flavors: Select the Twinings Holiday Teas flavors that you want to use for your tea favors. Peppermint and Holiday Cheer are popular choices for the holiday season.

2. Opening the Tea Bags: Carefully tear open each tea bag without damaging the filter.

3. Removing the Staple: Use a small pair of scissors or a staple remover to remove the staple holding the tea bag together.

4. Emptying and Replacing the Tea: Empty the contents of the tea bag and discard the used tea leaves. Replace them with fresh tea leaves from your chosen Twinings Holiday Teas.

5. Re-sealing the Tea Bags: Use your tiny attacher or a stapler to seal the tea bags shut. Make sure the tea bags are securely sealed to prevent any spills.

Now that your teabags are ready, let’s move on to the next step.

Step 3: Decorate the Honey Sticks

The honey sticks add a delightful touch to the tea favors. Let’s decorate them with some festive materials. Follow these steps:

1. Selecting Honey Stick Designs: Choose the honey sticks you want to use for your tea favors. You can find honey sticks with various designs or flavors.

2. Using Decorative Materials: Gather your decorative materials, such as flowers or ribbons, to embellish the honey sticks. You can get creative and use materials that match your holiday theme.

3. Attaching Decorations to Honey Sticks: Use your tiny attacher or a hot glue gun to attach the decorative materials to the honey sticks. Be careful not to cover the opening of the honey stick, as it needs to be accessible for use.

Now that your honey sticks are beautifully decorated, let’s move on to assembling the tea favors.

Step 4: Assemble the Tea Favors

Assembling the tea favors is where everything comes together. Here’s how to do it:

1. Arranging Tea Bags and Honey Sticks: Take your prepared tea bags and honey sticks and arrange them side by side. Make sure they are aligned nicely and look aesthetically pleasing.

2. Securing the Tea Favors: Use your tiny attacher, ribbon, or twine to secure the tea bags and honey sticks together. This will keep everything in place and prevent any shifting.

With the tea favors assembled, the next step is to package them.

Step 5: Package the Tea Favors

Packaging the tea favors is important for presentation and protection. Follow these steps to package them:

1. Placing Tea Favors in Clear Bags: Take your clear bags and carefully insert the tea favors inside. Ensure that the tea bags and honey sticks are neatly positioned and can be seen through the bag.

2. Adding Decorative Tags: Attach decorative tags or labels to the top of the clear bag. These can have holiday-themed designs or personal messages for the recipient.

3. Sealing the Bags: Use a twist tie, ribbon, or clear tape to seal the bags shut. Make sure the seal is secure and won’t easily come undone.

Now that your tea favors are packaged, let’s add some final decorative touches.

Step 6: Add Final Decorative Touches

Enhancing the presentation of your tea favors is the final step. Here’s how to add those special finishing touches:

1. Enhancing the Presentation: Use extra decorations like bows, miniature ornaments, or glitter to enhance the overall look of the tea favors. Let your creativity shine!

2. Using Ribbons and Twines: Tie ribbons or twines around the clear bags to add a touch of elegance. These can be in coordinating colors or with festive patterns.

3. Personalizing with Labels or Stickers: Consider adding personalized labels or stickers to further customize your tea favors. These can have your brand name, a holiday greeting, or a special message.

With your final decorative touches in place, your holiday tea favors are now ready to be admired and enjoyed.
