"Tea Leaves" Topic

Do you save the contents of used tea bags for use as basing materials?

no

Yes, I base entire armies with it and add a pinch of flock and a tuft here and there.

My wife has her entire office trained to save tea bags and brings home gallon sized zip lock bags of dried tea every other month or so.

Some might say "It will eventually break down because it is organic" but at my age I'll be long gone by the time that happens.

yes

I don't use tea bags but I do throw in loose tea leaves into my "rough flock" as underbrush.

yes

No

No, I do not flock my bases that realistically.

Yes.

I cook them dry in the microwave and have tubfulls of different colour blends.

Constant Comment Cinnamon + Stash Licorice Spice + Celestial Seaonings Chamomile makes a particularly nice variegation.

No, I just use sand and white glue.

I formerly used coffee grounds for that purpose but now my wife is feeding them to her worm farm.

Yes, looks very natural as it is real foliage.

I don't drink enough tea, which is why I also use coffee grounds.
