DIY a coffee mug using Sharpie Marker

Decorate your Coffee Mug

                                                              DIY


When you are looking to personalize something for any special occasion decorating the coffee mug is a great idea. Do-It-Yourself these super cute mugs. I made them for Valentines day with the quotes that we believe  in.

Supplies: A Coffee Mug (white/black)/ Sharpie oil based Paint pens 
Where: I bought 4 coffee mugs at Bed Bath and Beyond and Sharpie pens at Michaels.

Prepare: Run the mug under water and dry it with a towel or air dry it. Make sure your personalize message is big enough to fit the mug. Edit the message and finalize it.

Process: Take a sharpie paint pen and write the message on the mug and let it dry for 24 hours. Bake the mug for 30 to 45 minutes (Remember to leave the mug in the oven before you turn on the heat and after you turn off the heat.)  Once the mugs cool down completely you can hand wash them for the first time and then throw it in the microwave from the next time.
