Long Description

Make the anticipation of Christmas part of your holiday decorating with this Cocoa Mug Christmas Countdown DIY Kit. A generously topped cocoa mug, candy-striped accents, a layered bow and festive greenery create a cheerful setting for the two number faces. The “Days Til Christmas” lettering gives this cozy shelf sitter its seasonal personality.

Paint it in the soft pink, cranberry and cream palette shown, or choose colors that make it your own. Working with the separate layers lets you enjoy the little details before bringing the whole piece together. Display your finished creation on a mantel, shelf or cocoa bar, or make it as a thoughtful handmade holiday gift.

This listing is for one unfinished, unassembled kit, precision-cut from premium 1/8-inch MDF. The painted images show finishing inspiration, not a ready-painted product. The base is made from three separate strips glued into a layered support, rather than a single solid block.

What’s Included

• Unfinished laser-cut mug and decorative components for one Cocoa Mug Christmas Countdown.
• Layered lettering, topping, bow, foliage and other design pieces shown in the unfinished kit photo.
• Two blank number faces for you to finish.
• Number stencils to help decorate the number faces.
• Three separate base strips for the glued, layered base.

What’s Not Included

Paint, brushes, glue, sealer and other finishing supplies are not included. Fabric ribbon, decorative styling accessories, flowers, furniture and photography props are not included. The laser-cut decorative bow is part of the kit; any added fabric ribbon is not.

Materials & Size

Made from premium 1/8-inch MDF, supplied unfinished and ready to paint and assemble. Laser-cut edges may have natural darkening.

The main mug body outline measures approximately 7.34 inches wide × 8.76 inches high, excluding the assembly tab. This is a component measurement, not the finished assembled height. The base and layered parts affect the final assembled dimensions.

How to Use

1. Lay out the components and dry-fit the decorative layers and base before painting.
2. Lightly smooth any edges that need attention and remove dust.
3. Paint the pieces separately in your chosen palette and let them dry thoroughly.
4. Use the included number stencils to decorate the two blank number faces.
5. Glue the design layers and three base strips together with an adhesive suitable for MDF. Keep the number faces separate from the fixed decorative pieces.
6. Allow the adhesive to cure fully before placing the finished piece on a stable indoor surface.
