Only 10 days until my first craft fair! I have been so busy trying to get enough inventory made and for the past couple of days I’ve been working on these mini coffee cups. I saw them on Pinterest and just had to make some for my upcoming craft fair. Most crafters say they are their number 1 best seller at fairs. I sure hope so. They would make great little gifts for friends or teachers and coworkers. As a former teacher I know I would have loved a cute gift like this. I think they would make a great secret Santa gift too.
If you have missed any of the other crafts I’ve been making for the fair you can see HERE.
I used products from our new Coffee Suite to decorate these cups. I’m looking forward to making some with fall and Christmas themes too.
Have you seen this new Coffee suite? You are going to love how many different things you can make with it. All the paper matches and there is even a tiny coffee cup die to cut out the coffee cups on the designer paper.
Decorating the cups was pretty easy. First I took one apart so I could use it as a pattern. I traced and cut out designer paper to cover the cup. I used Tombow mono glue to adhere it to the cup. Next I cut out a band in a coordinating cardstock and stamped a sentiment before adhering it to the cup. I filled the cup with caramel coffee flavor Werther’s Originals and wrapped it up in a cellophane bag.
To make the tag I cut white cardstock 2 inches wide. Then used the scalloped tag topper punch. The original stamp sentiment was too big so I used a post it note to mask off half of it. Then decorated with a scrap of designer paper and the tiny coffee cup I cut out of the designer paper with the matching die cut.
A list of the supplies I used are listed below.

These are so cute but you buy a 1,000 at a time? Any place that sells a lot smaller quantity? A thousand is a lot to make and store etc. I gotta think about that part. But they are adorable. I am enjoying the craft fair part of the Pals on Facebook. Thanks for all your enthusiasm and great ideas.
Thank you Chris and yes you can buy them in 50 packs also. There should be a link on their website. I bought 100 cups and lids for $20 including shipping.

Where do you get the cellophane bags? Also, how much did you sell each cup for? Thanks!
Hi Carree, Thanks for stopping by my blog today. To answer your questions, I got the cellophane bags from Michael’s in the baking section. They are shaped like an hour glass or vase and I sell them for $4.
Have a blessed day,
Kristina

I love this. I found you on Pinterest looking for Craft Fair ideas. I have to make this “stamping addiction” pay for itself! Also loved your Hot Chocolate pocket. Thanks for the ideas.
I’m so glad you like them. I have had a lot of success at craft fairs before covid. Now I am making cards on consignment and selling through my online store. If you are interested I can tell you more.

I watched you on UTUB. I’m a scrapbook fanfic. I just started making
Personal cards with their picture. Mostly BD. My problem is making the envelope to mail them. I’m not into stamping. Might in the future. I don’t sell my albums just for family and friends. Thanks in advance
I’m glad you are finding my video’s useful. Cards with pictures sounds great! As far as envelopes, Do you have an envelope maker? I love to make envelopes with my 12×12 paper and then use mailing labels for a place to put the address.
Your decorated mini coffee cups are adorbs! You come up with wonderful ideas! I enjoy your blog!
Thank you 🙂
Great idea for craft fairs and little gifts of thank you etc…… Thank you for sharing….I only send cards and give some box gifts but this is something I would buy to make
What a super idea. Yeah you can use this for anytime, decorate for Christmas, Halloween. Birthdays. … Thanks So much for this ❤ super idea. I can’t wait to try it & use them for gifts.
Hello, love your ideas and just stumbled upon you because I’m a stampin up card maker. About your 4 ounce cups, how many candies do you put inside? I’m asking because your post said you sell them for 4.00, I found where you get the cups, do you buy lids separate? You are very fun to watch card making, keep up the inspiring work. God bless,
Gretchen
Hi Gretchen,
I put in a handful of kisses. The cups I used came with lids. Here is an Amazon link 50 cups with lids for $12
