....another recycled 2010 craft idea
Tea Ball String Storage
A quick + beautiful way to share your twine stash—these make lovely ‘take away’ gifts at a cookie swap with a bundle of recipe cards or add them to a personalised craft kit for a fellow crafter.
You will need a few tiny Styrofoam balls for wrapping your string around, tea balls (vintage or new) and your favorite twine—I used Divine Twine.
Wrap 5-10 yards of twine around the Styrofoam ball to make a tiny little ball. Tuck into your tea ball and thread the twine end either through the bottom or the top.
You can either remove the tea ball chain or add your own decorative ribbon for hanging.
i just noticed that the Holiday Divine Twine is back in stock--a wonderful pepperminty twist--perfect for a tea ball twine holder stocking stuffer....fits perfectly in the toe!
