Ohio State Gift Mug DIY

3-c

Here’s a great gift for the Buckeyes fan in your life!

The new officially licensed Ohio State products from Blossom Bucket, Inc. will be in stores this July!

You can use this project as back to school gift for a favorite teacher or student, or as fun way to gear up for the NCAA football season which will be here before you know it!

For this project, you will need the following supplies:

  • •Ohio State mug (plastic)
  • •black crinkle paper
  • •assorted themed pencils
  • •assorted mini candies
  • •Your favorite Blossom Bucket item(s)

Step One:

We picked up an inexpensive plastic Ohio State mug at a local discount store to fill with all of our goodies!

We started by filling the mug with black crinkle paper to ensure that the smaller pieces would show at the top of the mug.

Next, we added a few football themed pencils to the mug.

If you’re using this as a gift for a teacher, tutor, or student, pens and pencils are a great addition and sure to come in handy.

Although we selected football themed pencils, including one with a football shaped eraser, you could select another favorite sport or even try to find a few Ohio State writing utensils to add!

Step Three:

To make your gift just a little sweeter, sprinkle in several pieces of miniature candies!

Everyone deserves to indulge in a little treat now and then!

After the candy, top off your mug with your favorite item(s) from the new line of Ohio State merchandise from Blossom Bucket, Inc.! For our project, we used the Set of 2 Girl & Boy with OSU Pennants.
