gettin' a little crafty with my mug!!

I have been seeing Sharpie mugs all over Pinterest, and I have been wanting to make one!! So two weeks ago, I purchased THESE pens (since the reviews I have read say these do better with dish washing), and went to the dollar store and picked up some plain white mugs. I actually had to go to 2 different stores, because I think everyone must be making these, LOL!!

After I had all the supplies, I was nervous to actually start writing on my mugs.  What would I write/draw??  I can be so indecisive at times!!  I finally decided on a theme (pitties of course!!) and then started creating. 

These pens write really smoothly.  I would recommend having some nail polish remover on hand, just in case you make a mistake or change your mind (which I did twice~see, I really am indecisive!!).  They are really fun to make and go really fast!!  When you finish your mugs, just let them dry for 24 hours then bake them in a 150 degree oven for 35min.  So far they have survived the dishwasher. 

I am thinking of ideas for plates, glasses, platters...

 OH the possibilities!!   

And how cute would it to have everyone sign a plate for a shower instead of a guest book?

Enjoy Today!
