Ode To Tea

 
 A while ago a local art gallery had a show with the theme
'Ode to Tea'
 
 
Which inspired me to make this accordion book
 
 
 Where two little bubble birds
 
 
 were going to have some afternoon
bubble tea.
 
 
 
 
Here you can see the how it looks on the back when it stands open.
The whole thing is of course covered with tea stained tea bags.
 
The show was lovely -
many beautiful tea pots and cups joined my bubble birds,
and a few other tea bag books I made.
