This week I made these very cute Tea Time Treat bottles as favors for a High Tea Baby Shower. They are easy to make and look adorable - here are the easy step-by-step instructions.
If you don't have the time to make them yourself for a function that you are hosting, we would love to make them for you. Order here...
You will need:
- Small, square 200ml glass jars
- Cute little cups & saucers to stick onto lids (I bought mine from Toy's R Us in Atterbury Value Mart)
- Heavy duty glue (Builders Warehouse)
- Spray Paint in color of your choice (Builders Warehouse)
- Clear spray varnish
- Variety of individual wrapped tea bags (Spar, Checkers, Pick 'n Pay)
- Pretty ribbon
- Pretty paper & a printer
- Gold Sharpie pen
Directions:
- Mix equal parts of the glue in the 2 tubes. Immediately stick the saucer onto the lid, and the cup onto the saucer
- Leave for 3 hours to set well.
- Spray lid with spray paint. Leave to dry. Once dried, spray a clear varnish over whole lid. Leave to dry
- Fill bottle with tea bags.
- Put lid on. Print cute messages onto pretty paper. Attached to bottle with pretty ribbon.
DONE!

Pratley Quick Set glue is a heavy duty, clear drying glue. I prefer this glue because an elephant can hang onto the bottom of the jar and the cup&saucer will still not separate from the lid!
If you like the pattern on the tea set, leave it like that and only spray the lid. And stick onto lid once glue has dried.
