Herb Garden

If you love to garden or are someone who is always wanted a garden but live in an apartment, you can make a garden out of your old mugs! All you have to do is fill a mug with soil, plant an herb, and put it on the window sill. Not only will you have some amazing fresh herbs to use, you’ll save money on buying new pots.

Cold Kits

Especially during the winter months, many people catch colds or worse. Make your friends and family little car packages by putting things like teas, cough drops, or whatever you like in an old mug! It’ll save you from having to use a gift bag and then the recipient can use the mug in times of sickness.
