Tea bags - Wax White

To create these samples/experiments, I emptied clean, unused, round teabags. I then cut out my images from magazines to size, so that they would fit inside. To seal the images inside the tea bag, I melted candle wax until it was liquid. Then I dipped the tea bag into the wax until it was completely covered. When the wax dries the image inside is trapped, inside the tea bag and it has a waxy coating on the outside. I then cracked and bent some of the tea bags to add texture.

I really enjoyed this technique ad think that they work really well.
