Got an idea for an invention? Enter it in the American Women of Invention Search, presented by Bed, Bath & Beyond and Edison Nation

The contest celebrates the 200th anniversary of the first patent issued to a woman. She was Mary Kies, the year was 1809, and she invented a method of weaving straw with silk to make women's hats.

Bed Bath & Beyond is looking for innovative products or product ideas that solve everyday problems found throughout the home. There's no limit on the number of ideas selected. Products can make life cleaner, easier, more comfortable or more convenient. Women whose ideas are selected for sales by Bed Bath & Beyond will receive a $2,500 advance and additional compensation based on sales.

    I would like to introduce my idea of an integral steeper beneath a disposable cup lid. The idea of an integral steeper beneath any lid came to me while traveling the world. As a passionate tea connoisseur I found myself battling with loose tea bags overlapping wet disposable cups and fishing to dispose of an over steeped tea bag while on the go. Over the years I have improved what was at first an idea of a new, useful, non-obvious way to savor my tea.

    This patented concept is ideal for those who wish to enjoy their tea, yet maintain a busy day without sacrificing quality time for quality living. The lid allows for timed release of steeping creating balanced flavor. Further, it provides sanitary disposal of the tea bag. As an air traveler, this improvement is a welcomed, simple, practical and aesthetically pleasing idea that involves only a low cost of changing the dye cut on lids.

    I invite you to explore my patent where you will find my idea of an integral steeper beneath a disposable cup lid aimed at improving the global demands of the tea drinking industry.
