I decided since I'm officially back from my month long vacation and trying to get back in to the swing of things. Thus I have decided it is time for a giveaway...considering I honestly love hooking my friends, subbies and fellow make up/beauty addicts up with random goodies.
I went down to San Diego to visit the family (if you were wondering where I was the past month or so) and I gave my mom her Mother's Day gift when I was down there...and she loved it!
Oh I bet you want to know what I got her...well I suppose I should show you guys...I have one too! He He
It's actually a homemade item that one of my friends here in Germany makes..something that any serious coffee drinker who is eco-friendly would possible enjoy and love to have in their purse!
Here is what I'm talking about:
My mom's is the left coffee and Mine is the right coffee
Yup, as my friend calls them...Coffee Coozies (aka coffee sleeves)! Homemade coffee holders..since all coffee shops tend to give you one when you order a hot drink..(and true) Most use recycled. It is a fun and different way to make your coffee drink different from the rest, all while being green! I think these Coozies are super cute...but then again I'm a little biased.
No joke, everytime I went to a coffee shop while I was in the states and I went to grab my drink I would pull out my Coozie (or sleeve) to put it on..the barista would notice it and make a comment about how cute it was. Or would ask what it was...and it would lead to a conversation about the item..and then about to living in Europe.
I personally chose out the fabric choices for both mine and my mom. They are cool cause they are reversible (so two choices for something fun and unique). Plus they are fabric so for any reason I accidently spill on to it, I can pop it in the washer & let it air dry and it's good to go!
Also pointing out I would be hooking up my friend with her small side business of her making these items is a nice thing overall to do. As you guys know I love supporting small business, hence why I love getting different pieces of accessories, make up and even clothes from many online stores/shops.
Thus I'm thinking about making these Coffee Coozies as a giveaway goodie on my Youtube channel later on this month...of course allowing the winner(s) to choose their own Coozie and go from there. I'm checking in with my friend about it and see what she has to say!
But if you are an avid coffee lover like me...then this could be a fun little way to get your coffee to speak more about you! ha ha
