Once you've finished coloring all those fantastic mug pages, don't let them just pile up! These easy, affordable crafts will help you put your artistic masterpieces to good use.
1. Cozy Mug Coasters
Cut out your favorite colored mug designs. Glue them firmly onto squares of sturdy cardboard or poster board, slightly larger than your mug cutouts. Once dry, cover both sides with clear contact paper or packing tape for a waterproof, durable coaster perfect for real drinks!
2. “Warm Thoughts” Greeting Card
Fold a piece of construction paper in half to create a card. Glue one of your beautifully colored mug cutouts onto the front. Inside, write a comforting message about warmth, friendship, or a special “cup of cheer” for someone you care about.
3. Mug Shelfie Display
Cut out several colored mugs and glue them onto a small piece of poster board or an ice cream stick, creating a miniature “shelf” display. Add tiny pipe cleaner handles or decorative embellishments to make a cute diorama of your own custom mug collection.
4. “Steaming” Mug Wall Art
Glue a vibrant colored mug cutout onto a contrasting piece of construction paper. Above the mug, cut wavy “steam” shapes from white tissue paper, cotton balls, or even glitter for a shimmering effect. This adds a charming, dynamic touch to your mug artwork.
5. Mug Garland Decoration
Cut out multiple colored mug shapes, making sure to leave a small tab at the top of each. Punch a hole through each tab. String them together using yarn, ribbon, or pipe cleaners to create a festive garland to hang in your room or kitchen.
6. “My Favorite Mug” Puppet
Carefully cut out a colored mug. Glue it onto a craft stick, a toilet paper roll, or even a small paper bag. Add googly eyes and pipe cleaner arms if you wish, creating a fun, personalized mug puppet for imaginative play or storytelling.
7. Mug Shape Sorting Game
Glue different colored mug cutouts onto sturdy index cards or cardstock. On a separate piece of poster board, draw matching outlines of the mug shapes. Kids can then match the colored mugs to their corresponding outlines, turning art into a fun learning activity.
8. Custom Tea Party Placemats
Select your largest and most detailed colored mug page. Glue it onto a piece of construction paper or thin poster board. Laminate the entire piece with clear contact paper or broad packing tape to create a reusable and easy-to-clean placemat for your next pretend tea party.
9. “Mug of Wishes” Jar Decoration
Take a clear glass jar or plastic container. Cut out several small colored mug designs and glue them around the outside of the jar. Use this “Mug of Wishes” jar to hold slips of paper with good intentions, positive affirmations, or fun activity ideas.
10. Mug “Sip & Solve” Puzzles
Glue a colored mug page onto a piece of thin cardboard (like from a cereal box). Once dry, carefully cut the mug image into 4-8 simple puzzle pieces. Store your custom mug puzzle in a decorated envelope for a fun, portable brain-teaser.
