DIY Felt Tea Wallet

Hello, and welcome to another week! today I'm bringing you a great gift idea for tea lovers: a tea wallet.  

Want to make one too?

What you need: 

• two pieces of felt, one for the interior and one for the exterior of the wallet. Approximate size: 24 x 15 cm. You can use the same color, or contrasting colors, like I did
• two pieces of felt for the wallet pockets. Approximate size: 24 x 5 cm. 
• one button
• a small piece of elastic
• scissors and matching sewing thread
• optional: felt letters spelling TEA and fabric glue

Instructions: 

Start by pinning one of the pocket pieces to the inside of your wallet, approximately 4 cm from the bottom edge (as shown below), and sew in place: 

Next pin the other pocket piece to the bottom of the wallet (it will overlap with the pocket you've sewn before). Find the center of the wallet and sew from top to bottom (dividing the pockets in half):

Pin the two main wallet pieces together (with the elastic folded in half and tucked between both of them): 

Sew all around and trim off any excess felt: 

Sew the button in place: 

And add the TEA letters in any way you want (glue them in place): 

Fill the pockets with the tea of your choice and you're done!

Have a wonderful week!
