Another gift idea for the upcoming holidays are these customized floral mugs.
These hand painted floral mugs turned out even better than I expected.
The project was so simple you just need two things!
MATERIALS NEEDED FOR THIS PROJECT
So starting off I had these white mugs lying about which I didn’t really use since they were too plain and boring.
So I though why not give them a makeover using Glass Paint Markers.
The colors I chose for this project were Blue, Turquoise and Violet.
The idea was to have a floral feel to it but I did not want to make those detailed intricate flowers.
Moving on to these mugs.
The idea was to have a floral feel to it but I did not want to make those detailed intricate flowers.
Just something simple and straightforward.
So I went with this design.
I alternated between the colors.
If the petals were blue then the middle color I chose was Violet and vice versa.
On one mug I went with the Blue and Violet combination and the other I chose Turquoise and Violet.
It didn’t take long and I was done with this project in about 15-20 mins.
But you do have to wait for it to air cure for about 8 hours before using the mugs.
And if you want a dishwasher safe finish you can go ahead and bake it in the oven at about 325F for about 30 minutes.
Since I made these mugs for decorative purposes and I barely ever used them before hence I didn’t bake it in the oven.
But the results of the glass paint markers on its own are just as good and durable.
And there you have it.
All Done.
