The purpose of this post is to share my newest creation with you: my homemade paper coffee/tea cup sleeve. I've been reusing Starbucks' for a few weeks now and, one day, I was told that I could give a discount if I brought them back. How much? 10 cents.
I've tried to be "green" (I hate that word) and preserve the earth in my own way. I noticed some of the sellers on Etsy took the initiative and made their own versions. I jumped on the bandwagon and made one for a dear friend as part of her surprise Christmas present, accompanied by a Sbux gift card (she's almost as obsessed as I am) and cinnamon-mint gum (I hope she doesn't take that the wrong way). Good thing she doesn't read this blog.
[The lighting in the following pictures is horrendous! Please ignore the backgrounds, as well. Thanks.]
I haven't perfected the sleeve just yet (this is my first)...and this was my first time sewing on snaps, as well. Good thing my friend doesn't judge. :-)
