Hot Chocolate Gift Pockets

 Not only are these little hot cocoa pockets a cute gift idea, but they're super easy to make using supplies that you probably already have around the house. We'll be tucking a candy cane into each pocket and my son will be giving them to his classmates for Christmas this year.

Supplies Needed:

How to Assemble:

• Seal the envelope and cut in half to make a pocket. Set this aside while you make your mugs :) 
• For each mug you'll need pieces cut to the following measurements:  for mug body - 2" x 2 1/2", for handle - 1 3/4" x 1", for tag - 1 1/2" x 1/2", for marshmallows - 1/4" strip snipped into squares or circles from a standard paper punch, for "hot cocoa" looking drink - oval 
• Glue your "hot cocoa" oval to the top of your mug.
• Round the corners of your mug.
• Glue your marshmallows on the "hot cocoa" oval.
• Leaving a 1/4" border, cut the handle out of the appropriate piece of paper. Glue ends of handle to back of mug.
• Snip the corners of your tag piece. Write, stamp on or decorate the tag. Poke a hole in the hanging end,  put your ribbon or string through, and tie it onto your mug handle.

• If you want to have a decorative edge on your pocket, do that with your decorative scissors or glue ribbon around the edge of your pocket.
• Glue mug to envelope. You can put a dab of glue to hold the tag in place or just let it dangle.
• Tuck your hot cocoa packet and a candy cane into the top of your pocket and call it done.
