Simple Mug Project

As fall arrives and I'm decorating and getting the house in order, I've actually started on a couple of projects for Christmas! I know what you're thinking, Fall hasn't officially arrived. However, the air is starting to get that clean brisk feeling.

I was in Goodwill a while back and picked up a couple of mugs. I was looking for some that I could use for my Christmas hot cocoa bar. I wanted some that were a little unique. I knew if I couldn't find exactly what I wanted, I'd find something to make my own.

Here is what I did. I purchased these two white stacking mugs for .50 each.

I went to Michael's and found the stencil for mugs. They were 40% this week, but you can you a coupon if not. The craft paint was on sale also. I purchased gun metal black.

I then used a black sharpie to color on my adhesive letters. They craft paint didn't seem to stick well.

They have a couple of glitches, but overall I think they turned out pretty good. I like a little flaw in my crafts, lets people know it's "homemade" :)

I plan on using these on my hot chocolate bar this year for Christmas. Pictures to come.
