I recently sat down with just a few SIMPLE supplies and made the most adorable and easy gifts for my family. Have you all heard of Sharpie Mugs? They are all the trend and so so simple to make.
I bought three inexpensive mugs. The less expensive the mug, the better. Then, I wiped them down with rubbing alcohol to clean all the grease from people handling them.
I used my silhouette printer to come up with the designs, but you could also free hand a drawing, write out a poem, use stickers for your design, etc. Then, using regular black sharpies you color in your design.
Gently remove the stickers and put your mugs in the oven to bake!
I made some quick pom poms with yarn I had sitting around and you have a fun and festive holiday gift!
