DIY Mug Warmer Wrap with Solarize
Category: Utility
This DIY Mug Warmer Wrap is great for keeping your hot beverages warm and not burning your hands at the same time. I don’t drink coffee, but I do love drinking hot chocolate. I use a normal mug often. The Solarize helps keep hot things hot and cold things cold. Make a stack of these for personalized gifts, maybe with coordinating mugs and mug rugs. I choose a kitty print fabric, because I’m a confirmed cat lady…though I only have 2 cats. I chose a print with a stripe like design, so I could center the cats. With a project this small, an all over design can get muddled. Make sure you are picking a fabric with a print small enough to fit with the scale of the mug warmer wrap. If you like quilting, you can quilt a rectangle to match the size of your mug. The quilting will be focal design instead of one print.
