My favorite iced tea blend is Apricot Lavender! |
1. Covering my food in the microwave. I feel it's safer than using plastic wrap.
2. Steeping loose-leaf tea to make a big pitcher of iced tea.
3. On the bottom of popsicles, ice cream bars, etc., to catch drips.
4. Using one in my strainer to make it extra fine.
5. Protecting china dishes.
6. As a buffer between skillets and other cookware.

Clip the filter shut with a plastic clip. |
Lots of good ideas. I like them to line the bottom of a pot with holes to keep the soil in when potting up flowers.

Great tips Kitty!
ReplyDeleteHaha Judith- was just writing that very thing and looked up and saw you just said it. Ok. "Nuff said.
ReplyDeleteWell done, Kitty- great tips.
All great ideas! I see folks making fun flowers and wreaths out of them too:@)
ReplyDeleteGood idea's! Using under the popsicles.. super good idea. Thanks for sharing... Hugs, Cindy
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of the DYI tea bag. Using one for the microwave sounds good too, but I would only do this when standing nearby. Since the filters are paper, you do run the risk of them catching on fire. I've had that happen when using a paper towel in the microwave, so I would think a coffe filter could so the same. Thanks for all the great tips!
ReplyDeleteGreat tips, Kitty! Thanks for sharing with us.

What great ideas! I love these! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteKitty~ We switched over to Keurig so we're pod people :) now but I see that I need to have coffee filters on hand! Great tips!

ReplyDeleteAnother hint for the coffee filters. I use them at work as a bowl for microwave popcorn. Makes it easier to get to the popcorn, you don't get your hands as dirty and then they are disposable!
