OMG can you say too cute!!

I used the new Silly Vinyl Noses ~ chicken (would you guess any other..LOL)

and instead of putting them on the bottom of a coffee mug

I found these clearance clear mugs that I thought they would look adorable on.

My husband wanted a mug of his own so I did another

Awww....matching his and her chicken mugs :)

These are the cups we use for everything now...love them and the best part of them all

the vinyl was so super duper easy to put on!

They come with the transfer tape already attached...it is peel and stick!
