Pumpkin Spice Latte Cups Made From Paper Plates
I’m brewing up new ideas for Glued To My Crafts! Today’s Paper Plate Pumpkin Spice Latte Cups craft is just one of those “quirky” visions that just came to me one night. Like I said before, I like to think outside the traditional when it comes to my kids craft tutorials and this is one of those ideas that I hope you see my vision with!
Now let’s get it out of the way. Yes, I admit it. I’m one of those “basic” gals and I enjoy a good pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks. This time of year my son and I often go on coffee dates after school {especially if he had a really good week at school} and it’s my excuse to not only treat him but myself as well. Self care is important and coffee is a must!
So anyways – I took my love of coffee and paper plates, to make these Starbucks inspired white cups come to life. With just a simple pumpkin sticker from Dollar Tree, it all came together within minutes and only for a few cents! I’m not sure how many people will want to recreate my creative idea but I figured I would put it out there in the universe 🙂 Although I’m marketing it as a kid craft, you know adults can make it too!
Speaking of which – if you like this idea, maybe you will also enjoy our Stained Glass Pumpkin Spice Latte from last year. I didn’t think it would take off but it did. There’s even a free printable to get you started with that one. You should check it out and pair it with today’s idea. Hint hint!
Well now I’ll let you get to it! You can find the simple instructions and supply list below. Please don’t forget to share images of your paper pumpkin spice latte creations with us! You can tag us on Facebook or use our special hashtag #gluedtomycrafts on Instagram for us to see it!
