The babies and young toddlers at church keep getting their sippy cups mixed up. We needed a quick and easy way to determine whose cup belongs to whom.


Materials: Remnant fabrics (12" x 3"), Velcro (3" x 3/4")


Instructions:


  • Cut a 12" x 3" rectangle from your remnant fabric

  • (Optional) Stitch the name on to the material. This can be done by hand or by machine

  • Fold material in half length-wise, right sides together. Sew.

  • Turn right side out

  • Fold down ends to the inside and stitch close

  • Cut a 3" length of approximately 3/4" Velcro

  • Adhere Velcro, following manufacturer's directions. (I have some that are iron on, heat set; self adhesive, and sew on. I used all three types on the seven name tags)
