How perfect would these be for favors at a beer, dudes and diapers baby shower!? … and Father’s day is just a few weeks away as well! \u00a0Everyone needs a coozie, so we came up with a DIY Coozie perfect for any many party or celebration.<\/p>\n

You can find our new Beer, Dudes & Diapers Chalkboard design in the shop<\/a>!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Supplies needed:<\/strong>
\nPlain coozies (we found ours at Hobby Lobby)
\nChalkboard paint
\nDad & mustache stencil (you can create your own or use any pre-cut stencil letters\/stencil mustache found at craft supply stores)<\/p>\n

OR we sell a full set of Mustache silhouettes here for instant download in our shop<\/a>! (Great for photo booths, too!)<\/p>\n

<\/a>
\nDirections:
\n1. Create stencil or use store-bought and figure out placement on coozie.
\n**If creating your own stencil, print DAD and a mustache image on cardstock. \u00a0Cut out with X-acto knife.<\/p>\n

I just used basic stencil letters and mustache image
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

2. Tape stencil to coozie (clear packaging tape works well)
\n3. Paint one light coat of chalkboard paint. (you can even just get the basic outline of the stencil).<\/p>\n

DO NOT paint it on thick or multiple paint\u00a0layers… I did that at first and it was an epic FAIL. \u00a0Since the coozie isn’t flat, the paint bleeds easily.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

4. Once the first layer dries, remove the stencil and HAND PAINT in a few more layers. \u00a0Trust me when I tell you, this is much easier. \u00a0You just want to make sure the chalkboard paint is solid black, so a few layers will do.
\n5. When the paint layers have dried, take chalk and cover the letters… blend it in. \u00a0(This helps cure the paint).
\n6. Draw patterns in the letters and mustache for added details! \u00a0You can use basic fabric paint or acrylic paint… but chalkboard paint gives a fun dimension.
\n7. Cut out printable or paper mustaches<\/a> and tape to the beer bottles for added detail.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Set out as party favors, or give as a gift – all dads will love this hand-made DIY coozie.<\/p>\n
