Turn on the Christmas carols and pour yourself a cup of hot chocolate! It’s time to sit down and get cozy for a holiday craft!

Every year I find it difficult to shop for the men on my list. They fall into two extremes:

• Their wish list is non-existent
• Everything on their list is way out of my price range

Therefore, I’m left racking my brain for a gift they would enjoy, but never think to put on their list. Last year I chose to go down the food route with Chocolate Covered Bourbon Oreos. Because let’s be real, you can never go wrong with food! But this year I was in the DIY mood and wanted to switch things up a bit.

Therefore, I bring you these Anthropologie inspired monogram tumblers! They were surprisingly simple to make and only cost a fraction of the retail price! They would be perfect as a stand-alone present, but if you want to go all out you could package them up as a mini cocktail gift set.

Here’s how you can make them at home:

Anthropologie Inspired Monogram Tumblers

You will need:

Directions:
