Fold each narrow end toward the new center. Fold once more so that the narrow ends are now inside a tea bag shaped sachet. Make a loop of satin ribbon and staple to the top of the sachet, tea bag style.
4
Hang tea bag from the spigot on your tub, so that the water runs through it as you run your bath, or float your bath salt tea bag in the tub for a few minutes before you enter the tub.
