Sleevebucks, an artist, who frequents a Starbucks branch, and draws on the cardboard mermaid, recently earned the monicker ‘King of Coffee Sleeve Artists’ .
Why?
He took a different route by drawing popular movie and pop culture characters on the sleeves that come with the cups.
The drawings are far better than others have created because of the little puns sprinkled throughout.
Like Sleevebucks, many telecommuters leave their home office to go to a local coffee shop to try to boost their productivity. A study conducted by the Journal of Consumer Research actually shows that a low level ambient noise (50db) in a coffee shop actually can increase creativity. Apparently, the right mix of calm and noise in the background gets creative juices going. Now Starbucks can claim they have free WiFi and improve your professional performance!
The sleeve on your Starbucks coffee cup can save you from a having a really bad coffee trip, but when put in the right hands, it can be much more than that.
