Wednesday Whim - 363 Days of Tea


While I typically prefer coffee over tea, I still enjoy a good mug of tea to change things up. Normally, my used tea bags are tossed into compost and I go on about my day, but after seeing Ruby Silvious's work I'm seeing things differently.

Ruby Silvious is a graphic designer and she views tea bags as a blank canvas. She took on a project called "363 Days of Tea" this year where she draws, paints and collages art on to used tea bags. Unconventional to say the least, her work has become a journal of sorts where she documents her thoughts and feelings through art.


She's nearing the end of this project and let me just say that I plan to see this through to the end. You can follow along too on her Instagram or her Facebook page.
