I had this crazy idea....



I had always wanted to learn how to use a jig-saw, so about six months ago I bought a really good saw. It took me forever to actually use it, but one day, while brushing my teeth (crazy how my mind works), I had this hair-brained idea to make these giant coffee cups and decorate them. Needless to say I didn't figure out how to cut out the handle :(, and they are a little wonky. But, I have two more and a cute as heck teapot and I'm going to attempt to cut those out. Since the cutting, and decoration of these two I've had many people tell me how to cut the handle out. So, one late night I got to crafting, and here you have it....giant coffee cups. They sure were fun to do.....and I've received many comments/compliments on them in the shop. When I finish the others, and cut them appropriately :), I'll take another picture.
