I think it was $25 or $30 last year. It came with 20 T-Sacs and 12 samples of various teas, one for each of the 12 days (although it’s set up as a lead-up with the last new tea on Christmas day). It was fun, but I must admit I still have half of mine left. : S I gotta drink mo’ tea!

Very cool – thanks for the info Uniquity! Yes you need to drink more tea! :)

Out of curiosity, how big were the samples of tea?

Small
Uniquity said 2012-09-06 05:10:00 -0400

Maybe 3 or 4 cups worth? I might be over guessing it though, as I sometimes use a bit less leaf than others. 2 or 3 might be more accurate. 11 of the teas were re-brews of popular ones throughout the yea, and the christmas day tea was brand new – I wasn’t very clear in my other post, heh.

I definitely got 2 cups worth (not counting resteeps), but like Uniquity said, I think it depends on how much leaf you use

The swap is now full. I will be in touch with everyone this coming weekend… My daughter gets married on Friday so I won’t have time to really put together all the details until after that. But, I’ll be contacting everyone in the swap either Saturday or Sunday to give you the details.

This will be fun! Yay!

Yea thanks this is great and congrats on the wedding!!

LiberTEAS said 2012-08-29 20:44:51 -0400

Thanks. It’s one of those low-budget, DIY kind of weddings, so as an artist, I’m doing a lot of the different things for it. I made the invitations, programs, favor decorations, and I’m making the cupcakes (I made the stand for the cupcakes also) and also doing the flowers. So, it’s a lot of work. But, it is worth it.

Sare said 2012-08-29 21:08:58 -0400

Hehe That’s what mine Was! Im an artist too and I planned my wedding in 3 weeks! lol Did it all myself though we didn’t have invitations but everything was home made! its the best way to do it, its all personal :)

Uniquity said 2012-08-30 05:31:15 -0400

Gah. I am also planning my own wedding, but there are no artists in sight. I am trying to be creative, but so far nothing is coming to fruition. At least I’ve still got nine months. Which doesn’t sound like nearly long enough.. : )

I wanted to bump this thread up as it is an awesome idea! I realize the one is already full, but if there are another 11 people who would like to participate I’d be happy to organize it and work out the details. Thanks for the idea, LiberTEAS!
