Used tea bags

I also put mine in the compost, though we have recently started to use just one tea bag for 2 cups of tea, so I now have less to put in the compost bin!

If you can collect 6-12 in a day (you need at least that many and you don't want them to be manky and old) lob them in the bottom of the bath before you run the water in. Tea is a natural astringent, it's good for your skin. Posh women pay a lot of money for daily clenser, toner and moisturiser- well tea is a natural toner. Your skin comes out younger-feeling.

S'good, try it

PS- I noticed the username, this is lovely after a winter rideout when you've peeled your socks off and you feel like a human frog.

Hi I seem to throw a lot of tea bags away. What if anything can I do with them. My garden is very small no where for a compost heap. Thanks x

Put in the fridge and use as eye-packs.

You can still empty the leaves over the garden and the worms will drag them in, but the bags actually have plastic in them :eek: so they would need to be binned.
