Allow your kids to show their creative side, and make the best homemade gifts for friends and family.

You need a blank mug, a Cricut mug press, and a few other supplies to make your own.

Cut a piece of paper to be shorter than the height of the mug

Clean the mug and tape on the design to press to the mug with heat resistant tape.

Transfer the design to the mug with the Cricut mug press.

After the mug cools remove the paper to reveal the design.
