BYOCS- Bring Your Own Coffee Sleeve

Posted by Nifty Gal 1/3/09 Saturday, January 03, 2009
Now that we don't use Styrofoam anymore our locally-owned coffee shops serve their yummy sustainably-harvested, shade-grown, fair- trade coffee in paper and include a funny cardboard sleeve to protect our fragile skin.

Bring Your Own Coffee Sleeve
Save a tree and make your own- out of recycled materials. It is the easiest project ever!!
I am keeping this one, but I think this would be a neat gift along with a coffee gift certificate.

What I did:
I took the cuff of an old wool sweater that was accidentally felted (washed on hot and dried) cut it off and added my own touches. The decorations are made from a ripped fleece blanket that was going to be tossed. I "loop stitched" the sun on and machine sewed a tree onto the blue fleece as well as a bird on the sun. Nothing more. It was THAT easy!
