my room: tea bag lights

i recently redid my room, and came up with an idea that i want to share with you. i don't know about you, but i drink a lot of tea. 2-3 cups a day. i generally stick to yogi teas, which tags have inspirational sayings on them like "the best way to live is to simply be" and "when you are in tune with the unknown, the known is peaceful." those are two of my favorites.
i took a string and tied a needle to the end, creating a little sewing device to pull the tags through. every time i drank a tea, i would rip off the tag and string it on. it was a fun little project to undertake, and i really like how it came out. you can make it as long as you want, but mine has about 10 tags on it. i also have lights hung up on the wall, so they almost mirror each other. at night, it creates a charming little corner next to my bed. here is a tag close up:
i hope you find this inspiring!
