Mug Rugs are a popular Christmas craft this year. If you enjoy sewing, it is the perfect project to use up some of your holiday fabric stash and create a personalized homemade gift.
Most mug rugs are about 4 x 7 inches, so there is room for a mug and a tasty treat, like a Christmas cookie! They are like coasters, but with extra room for snacks. Some patterns also have a 12 x 8 option that have room for a mug and a bowl or small plate. They work great to protect your table, desk or work space.
These designs are from Kimberbell, but there are so many sources of patterns available – many can be found free on Pinterest or other sites. Or you can create your own design. You could include a couple of mug rugs with your cookie trays.
Have fun making cute little mug rugs! These will just make you smile! Now time for a cup of warm hot cocoa and a Christmas cookie -or two. Merry Christmas!!!!!
