Bead Dilemma
A customer recently contacted me concerned over peeling of the wooden closing bead on her organic needle tea bag. Erring on the side of caution, I am asking all tea bag customers to remove and discard the cinching bead. I have pulled the bags from my Etsy shop until I find a suitable replacement for the cinch. The bags CAN be used without the bead. In fact, the original design did not have the bead. I added it for gunpowder tea users, but for regular big leaves it should be fine once it is wet. In any case, if you have one and would prefer to return it I will be issuing refunds, including shipping. I apologize for the inconvenience. Back to the drawing board!
And thanks again for all the great feedback guys!
