If you love coffee or another warm beverage during colder weather, make a DIY coffee sleeve! These 14 ideas make great gifts.
It’s fall, and it’s the time of year that I love a warm drink. Let’s face it, I love coffee any time of year, but it’s especially delicious during the fall and winter when it’s cool outside.
For those of you who aren’t sure if I’m a total nerd, I’ll let you know that I am by revealing that I keep a coffee sleeve in my purse. And I like to have a collection of them that depends on my mood. So the easiest way to do that is to make them myself!
I think everyone should make a drink sleeve, and that includes you. For 14 DIY coffee sleeve ideas, scroll down!
