If you know me at all, you probably know that coffee is just slightly important to me. It only accounts for about 80 percent of my body, so you know, not that important. That being said, it's probably a very good idea (as in if you value your physical safety) to not address me until after I have had my morning cup of joe. Or two. With my obviously completely normal and healthy relationship with coffee, I thought it might be best if I took a little in my sorority who also loved coffee (let's be real, she's going to after a few weeks with me, anyway...). So for all you fellow coffee lovers out there wanting to expose your littles (or anyone who has any sense for what is good in life) to the wonderful world of coffee, here are some fun coffee-inspired gift ideas:
1. DIY coffee sleeves.
Because fall weather means pumpkin spice EVERYTHING all the time (basic, I know). This tutorial shows you 14 cute ways to make a coffee sleeve yourself!
2. Sharpie mug.
These DIY sharpie mugs are actually super easy to make (even for the ridiculously artistically-challenged person like me)! Plus you can find a million gabillion designs, colors, mug types, etc.!
3. Starbucks USB.
Okay, so I might just love this because I am a teensy bit obsessed with all things miniature, but I mean COME ON. Just look at how adorable this Starbucks USB is!
4. DIY vanilla coffee sugar scrub.
I guess this is for those who want to waste precious coffee on something other than drinking it.. But I must admit, the smell and results from the scrub are divine.. Plus, who's to say you can't make yourself a pot of coffee to drink while your having a mini spa-day? Multi-coffee-tasking, people. It's a real thing.
5. Perfect coffee order canvas.
If you're lucky like me, you will have a little who really is a fun addition to the fam--plus this canvas is still easy to do, thank the lord (can you tell how important easiness is for me?).
6. "Gilmore Girls" craft numero uno.
I'm pretty sure living the coffee life in a sorority also means you like "Gilmore Girls" -- there's no choice.
7. "Gilmore Girls" craft numero dos.
All right, I know I said these were to make for your little, but I'm sure you as a big would just absolutely love it if your little made something for you, too, just because they love you so much...(hint, hint).
8. "Gilmore Girls" craft numero tres.
Let's be real, the "Gilmore Girls" are the ultimate standard for coffee drinkers. One can only hope to reach their level one day...
9. Coffee lover gift basket.
This blogger somehow managed to put together a recipe for the perfect coffee lover gift basket, and it doesn't even break the budget (I'm pretty sure I just heard every broke college kid sigh in relief). Plus everything is super easy to find and different themes/color schemes are easily applicable -- so basically she's the master of coffee-gift giving, bless her soul!
Now go and make those coffee loving littles' day! And try not to hint too hard that you might just want a little bit of coffee something in return...
