DIY Oil Sharpie Quote Tea Pot {Gift Idea}

Want a customized gift for Mother's Day - how about a DIY {oil} sharpie quote tea pot... pick your favourite (or Mom's fave) quotes, sayings, or verses and make her a special tea pot full of inspiration

I wrote at different angles to add interest. You don't have to do black and white- oil sharpies come in a myriad of colors.

Start with an ordinary and inexpensive tea pot that I picked up at Walmart for about $9.

Use OIL base sharpie paint pens if you want it to last... sketch or write to your heart's content.... I bought mine at Michael's.

Bake it to seal it...

Mom - or any recipient of your gift- can read over their favourite quotes while they sit and enjoy their cuppa tea.

Very cool! Years ago, I used a gold sharpie to do the fine trim on the railing of our porch. It worked beautifully!

I had a special plate that I gave to someone at each family get together, it was the Honor Plate. Before we ate or after the dishes we done, I had them sign their name and date it. It has been a very nice memory through the years. I used a Gold paint pen for that! I did wash it by hand however.
