Gift Idea: Beverage Tubs

IMG_2750

When I spied these beverage tubs at Target during the summer, I immediately knew I wanted to gift them for Christmas. I could already see them in my head, all gussied up with vinyl. I think this project turned out so cute and I can’t wait to see my female family members’ reaction to their monogrammed tubs.

This is a super easy project if you have access to a Silhouette SD or a Cricut (or if you have a generous friend that will help you out!).

Start by creating your monogram with your craft cutter’s editing program. I knew I wanted something a little more elaborate than just the letter, so I chose this design for my mother’s tub.

Sidenote: Merry Christmas, Mom! Act surprised!

Cut out your design.  I’ve found that intricate designs are a pain in the tush to apply to any surface. I seriously spent about 20 minutes trying to get this sucker off the transfer paper and onto my beverage tub. Pain in my butt.

Viola! Instant cuteness. Can’t you see one of these at your next neighborhood soiree?  Well, not in my neighborhood since my neighbors prefer to engage in unneighborly acts like letting their dog poop in my yard and not cleaning it up…. but maybe you have different neighbors.

What would you fill your tub with?

I have a huge silver galvanized tub that I use for every party- but I love the smaller ones and I love the monogram even more!!
