I snatched up these plain white coffee mugs from the dollar store recently, with Christmas gift mugs in mind. These are perfect to fill with treats, greeting cards, or gift cards for display on Christmas morning. Stencil custom monograms and text with Martha Stewart’s glass paint and adhesive stencils for a personalized keepsake. Give them to neighbors or coworkers. They will never know you paid $1!
SUPPLIES:
Dollar store coffee mugs
Martha Stewart glass paint
Martha Stewart adhesive stencils
Rubbing alcohol
Paint daubers or stencil brush
TUTORIAL:
Clean mugs with rubbing alcohol
Plan design and place stencils
Apply Paint
Carefully remove stencil before paint dries completely
The paint is permanent after 21 days of air drying, or you can speed this up by baking per instructions on Plaid’s website.
These are great for weddings and special occasions too! And it doesn’t have to be just cups..the dollar store has plenty bowls, plates and other ceramics to stencil. Try using candlesticks,vases or salt and pepper/sugarbowl sets with a monogram…then they can be used all year long.
Great tips, Cherie! Thanks for sharing your ideas. I particularly like the salt and pepper shaker suggestion.
