Tea bag folding or "Kaleidoscope" is a paper folding craft which first started in Europe by Tiny Van Der Plas. It can be similar to origami with its folding techniques and very mind absorbing. But I must say, I do enjoy Tea Bag folding.
Tea Bag Folding first originally started with Tea Bag Covers or wrappers. Hence the name for it. Its done using squares of paper of equal measurement and equal quantity to create a medallion like motif which can be used for scrapbooking, cardmaking and many more.
Now in this present time, there are many ways to doing Tea Bag Folding. There are many examples which can be found on the web. To read more, you can look here and here. Will add more link, as I go along.
Here are some of my previous work on Tea Bag folding. There are more kept away somewhere in my craft closet. No worries, I will get them out as soon as possible! :)
Meanwhile, I hope you enjoyed this info and have a fun-filled kaleidoscope day! ;-)
