- 8.5 x 11 card stock
- Baker's twine
- Paper shredding or tissue paper
Cut 1 sheet of card stock in half to 4.25" x 9" with a paper trimmer. Set aside the scrap pieces to use for the handle.
Use a scoring blade to score the paper at 1" along the short side. Use the scoring blade to score the paper 1" from the edge on the long edge.
Cut the score marks along the 9" edge so you have small tabs. Roll up the paper to create a cylinder. Affix with hot glue on the edge.
Fold in the tabs to create the bottom of the mug.
Use scrap paper to cut 2, 2" circles with a circle cutter. Glue on the bottom and inside of the cylinder
Cut a strip of paper 1/2" x 4.25" and fold and glue on the mug for a handle.
