How to Sharpie and Bake a Coffee Mug | Posh Pooch Designs

It is really easy and super fun.

We have a Crochet get together that we call

"Ch1, Sip 1"

It is a group of fun ladies who love 

to Crochet and love to sip Coffee.

I made each of them a Mug.

See a Video on my Youtube Channel 

at this LINK

Here is how I did it:

1. Preheated the Oven to 350 degrees.

2. While the oven was heating,

I decorated each much with my sharpies.

I wrote the name of our group, 

a yarn ball and yarn, 

and a little paw print on each mug.

Then went back and colored each 

yarn ball a different color.

3. I baked them for 30 minutes.

They do not have to be on a tray. 

It just makes it easier to put them in 

and take them out of the oven.

Baking the Sharpie onto the Mug 

makes it dish washer safe and permanent.

4. While the mugs were cooling, 

I printed off some fun tags.

I stamped some paw prints across each one.

And then, I Punched a hole and 

cut some pieces of yarn.

5. I tied the tag on the handle.

I put a little Cappuccino package in each one.

And Grabbed a new snack to try.

 and headed to my Ch1, Sip 1 group.

I kept the yellow one for myself, 

since yellow is my favorite collar.

I purchased the mugs at a restaurant supply store.

Any ceramic mug will work.

I had fun making these mugs, 

and fun giving them to the sweet ladies of our group.

Coffee, Crochet and Bonbons Meet Up Group | Posh Pooch Designs

We have started a Meet Up Group called

 Coffee and Crochet, I added the Bonbons!

People say I just sit at home

"Drinking coffee, crocheting and eating bonbons".

They were 2/3rd right.

We are meeting at this new Awesome 

Location of Fika Coffee House.

It is a wonderful place.

Canterberry Parkway and Idyllwilde

 Fika Coffee House to open in Idyllwilde

Read about it here.

The Building is quaint and rustic.

This big Fireplace is so cozy, 

it makes you feel 

like your in a lodge in mountains 

or a cabin in the woods.

I look forward to meeting here 

when it gets cold outside, 

so we can crochet in front of the fireplace.

The Coffee is amazing.

 The Staff is friendly.

The bathroom is clean.

And the Coffee is amazing. Oops, 

did I say that already.

Our Coffee and Crochet Group 

meets here on Thursdays

 to talk about crochet, hooks, yarn,

our latest projects and life.

We step away from our "busy lives" for 

a few minutes, relax, Sip coffee, and chat.

Some times we give gifts.

I made these fun coffee mugs.

I used color Sharpies.

Here is the Link for how to make them.

His and Her mugs

 It is really easy and fun.

Then I put together gift bags 

from some yarn from Red Heart 

and other goodies.

I was given these beautiful 

Mandala cloths from one of our groupies.

She Does Beautiful work!

We  love  our 

"Coffee and Crochet Group".

This is my new favorite coffee place.
