DIY | Painted Mugs

I have seen so much pretty hand painted mug projects on Pinterest that I really wanted to try it for myself. And I must say that it’s a lot of fun!
It’s also very easyand inexpensive, which makes it even better!
And now every time that I see someone drink from my own designed and crafted mugs, it gives me that proud feeling :)
 
DIY:
 DIY | Painted Mugs
Take a plain mug. (I bought mine at the eurostore). 
Decide which kind of ceramic marker you want to use. We have a different selection of ceramic markers here in Holland, so I think it’s best to just go to your local craftstore and see what they have. The marker that I used is a black ceramic marker that is also dishwasher proof. 
DIY | Painted Mugs
Start getting creative! Just draw anything you like on them with the marker. The marker I used could also be removed with a wet napkin during the drawing process, so I could easily fix any mistakes I made.
Then just put your mugs in the oven according to the instructions on the marker.
 
All done!

      Thank you! I have been looking for a particular style to draw lately to practice my drawing skills, and I never knew how I could find drawings in the style that I am interested in for inspiration. (besides a lot of searching on etsy and pinterest)

      So after I read your comment, I googled scandinavian illustrators and found exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!

    I can hardly wait to try these! (The product description says to avoid putting on surfaces that will come in contact with food. I wouldn’t draw too close to the rim of a mug because you don’t want to end up eating the finish.)

      My ceramic marker didn’t mention anything like that, so I think it depends on which marker you use. But avoiding the rim is a good idea :)

    Hi Lana! I recently found your blog and am now a fan&follower :) These coffee cups where so cute and saved me from the agony that was planning my sister-in-laws Xmas gift! I made a post at http://lipstickandawhitetee.blogspot.com/2012/12/19th-diy-paris-cappuccino-cups.html, and credited you of course :)

    Have a lovely Christmas back in Europe! No snow here in San Francisco Bay… :(

      Your mugs look so great, could not resist :)

      Oh :( I hear they have a massive amount of snow in Finland already (we don’t have a white Christmas too often), and now there’s a snowstorm, when everyone is driving around :S

      Keep up your amazing work!

    Cute mugs! I’ll try it out with the kids this summer, looks like less mess than the Hema-DIY-mug-painting-sets we’ve tried before… Where did you buy your marker? Living at Terschelling I quite depend on online shops for crafting materials. I’ll let you know when it’s tried and blogged about :-)

      Good luck!
