Valentines day Coffee cup

Last year, I made my husband DIY beer labels for Valentines day.  And oh how our lives have changed since last year!

Now that we have a little one, Greg's beverage of choice is coffee, not beer!

I decided that I will surprise him with a special Valentines day travel cup that he can take to work with him on Valentines day!



I purchased a pack of disposable " to go" coffee cups from the store  and took off the cup liner.



I then traced the cup liner on a piece of cardstock .


I then used a heart cookie cutter to trace a heart.



I got some coffee beans out of my kitchen cabinet.



And used a hot glue gun to glue them on my coffee sleeve.



I then glued the coffee sleeve onto the cup.


I made a little message to attach to the cup.  " Our Love will continue to Brew. Always"

I also plan to attach a foam heart sticker on the cup opening to prevent spills as he is driving to work.

A picture of the finished product once again.

  3. I like this idea. We make our own lattes every day, so I think I'll have to wake up early to make him a coffee in the cup I make.
