DIY Travel Mug for Your Favorite Teacher

you-taught-me-a-latte-travel-mug-teacher-gift

We run out the door every morning with a coffee in hand, so a good travel mug is a worthy investment. Teachers who choose to nurture, teach and discipline our children on a daily basis also deserve a good travel mug. Whether its tea or coffee, we want to make sure our teachers are fueled throughout the day with a memorable mug in hand. In the summer, when they are not in the classroom, they will be reminded of the difference they made in our children’s lives.

Instead of, “You taught me a lot,” we played with fun coffee lingo and turned it into, “You taught me a latte.”

Materials:

Directions:

Design and print your words on Silhouette software and print according to package instructions.

Place painter’s tape over the design, and pull it up. The words should now be on the tape.

Press the tape {with the words} onto the mug and use a straight-edge to smooth out any bubbles.
