If you like tea but dislike throwing away those tea bags, here are 4 ways to reuse them:

#1 – Throw Them In The Compost Bin
Tea bags make wonderful compost for your garden. Just add them to your compost heap and let nature takes its course.

#2 – Under eye soother
This is my favorite: Used tea bags, particularly chamomile bags, can be cooled and placed on the eyes for a wonderful soothing relaxant.

#3 – On sun burns
Peppermint tea bags work wonders healing sunburns. Leave to cool then place the bags on the burnt areas.

#4 – On cuts and bruises
Used tea bags are also great on cuts and bruises. You can use any variety but green tea, peppermint and chamomile have good soothing qualities.

Have fun reusing those bags!
