Can you relate to this “I Came, I Saw, I Had Anxiety, So I Left” DIY Mug?

This week I am teaming up with some of my favorite Cricut crafting bloggers to bring you some fun DIY projects each day. For my project, I thought it would be fun to make this Anxiety mug that I designed for me but my husband quickly stole. Since this was a last-minute project and I was visiting my parents with my kids, I decided to make it using my Cricut Joy (which is was so conveniently small and portable to bring with me.) using the Smart Permanent Vinyl. However, you can make this mug with the Explore or Maker machines as well (you would just need to put your permanent vinyl on a standard grip mat to cut the design.)

This is a quick and easy project no matter which Cricut machine you use to cut your permanent vinyl with. Use the directions below to make your own Anxiety mug or pin this post to your Ciruct DIY board on Pinterest to make later.

Yield: 1 mug

I really do love how this mug turned out. I think I will have to make a second one (since my husband laid claim to this one.) Best of all it was cheap to make since I use a $Dollar Store Mug and only a few inches of Vinyl.
