How to Paint a Mug
So, I decided the pear mug would be my inspiration. I figured it was really just a big blob, so painting it free hand wouldn’t be all that difficult.
I actually bought my mug from Crate and Barrel, but since it was not painted by a designer, it was only $3.95! Throw in some paint for another $2.oo and you have your own version of the Marimekko Paaryna White and Green Cup mug for less than $6.oo!
Supplies:
– Mug (I bought mine from Crate and Barrel)
– Martha Stewart Muti-Surface Satin Paint
– Paint Brush
– Permanent Marker
{Step 1:} Paint the base of your pear on your mug. It does not have to be perfect as it is basically a big blob. Let your paint dry. Repeat this until you have nice coverage on your mug.
{Step 2}: Once your paint is dry, grab your permanent marker and draw in your stem. Put a little star at the bottom of your pear.
Go get your coffee!
