Drink your way out of poverty ~ tea bag art saves families


Original TBag Designs

is a community of South African artists who live using recycled tea bags as their canvases. The money earned by their art helps support a community of 125 people. Pictured here is Nomsa, who was able to buy a house with the proceeds from her paintings with tea bags.

“The most wonderful thing in the world is hearing the rain on the roof and knowing my children are warm and dry.”

YOu can purchase the artwork online or via retail outlets mentioned on their page.
