Re: Teabag folding


The story goes that Teabag folding began when Tiny van der Plas of Holland needed to make a birthday card for her sister. As she was having a cup of fruit tea she was playing with the printed envelope that she had taken the teabag out of. She cut the front of it into a square, then emptied seven more envelopes, fitting them together in a circular fashion to form a rosette - thus, the art of teabag folding was born and the rest is history!
