Last December I wrote an article for Carolina Parent magazine about super simple gift ideas your kids can make (or help make) themselves, and though I think I posted most of them not long after the article came out, this one slipped through the cracks. As luck should have it, the chilly weather and warm-drink season is upon us, so I figured now’s as good of time as any to share.

DIY Coffee Cozy
What you’ll need:
• a clean sock
• felt
• scissors
• fabric glue
• buttons
1. Measure 3 inches down from the top of the sock, and cut a straight line across.
2. Add embellishments using felt pieces, buttons and fabric glue. Allow glue to dry completely before using the cozy.

Super fast, super simple, and super kid-friendly. Beany loves just about any craft that involves buttons, so she might be whipping up a few more of these herself come Christmastime (spoiler alert, grandmas!). Or maybe we’ll do some of those adorable button trees floating around Pinterest. Man oh man, that website is the stuff.
Happy weekend, pals!
