Materials 

Instructions 

  • Create your hot cocoa mug template by drawing a 3” x 3” square onto colorful cardstock using your ruler and marker.
    Then, draw a curved line across the top of the square and another curved line across the bottom of your square.
  • Draw your mug handle. You can use a half heart shape or a “C” shape to do this.
  • Cut out your hot cocoa mug and handle.
  • Trace your template three times onto three different pieces of cardstock to make your other mugs.
  • Take your mug handle template and trace it onto three different pieces of cardstock as well.
  • Cut out your traced hot cocoa mugs and handles.
  • Now, get your glue stick and attach each handle to its mug.
  • Draw a narrow oval about 2.5” long onto your brown paper.
  • Cut out your oval.
  • Trace it three more times onto the brown paper and cut these out so you have four ovals in total.
  • Glue the brown pieces onto the tops of each mug. This is the hot cocoa!
  • Draw a white line on each mug just below the brown hot cocoa. This marks the top rim of the mug.
  • Decorate your mugs however you would like.
    I drew snowflakes, but you can do whatever your heart desires.
  • Here is another example of how you can decorate your hot cocoa mugs.
  • Glue your white pom poms onto the brown hot cocoa for marshmallows! I think 3 or 4 pom poms are perfect.
  • Your hot cocoa craft is complete!
