How to make a Jellycat inspired coffee cup

My daughter has been obsessed with Jellycat toys for a while and has a sweet collection of them. Why do people love Jellycat so much? They are super soft and so fluffy, and we love that they are everyday objects as well as animals. We’ve made our own Jellycat inspired birthday cake and even little clay Jellycat models too! Why not make your own Jellycat inspired coffee cup craft with us today. We recycled cardboard tubes to make our own version of the Jellycat coffee cup. These make cute pencil pots or desk ornaments.

First cut your cardboard tube to about 5 cms high. This will be the coffee cup. Cut another strip about 1 cm for the handle.
