Materials & Tools

White ceramic mug
An array of sharpie markers
Oven

Instructions

Clean those mugs good! I used soap, water and a bit of windex
Think of something super neato to put on your mug
Start drawing your design. Its ok if you make a mistake! Break out that windex and wipe away the oops.
Now you can bake 'em! DO NOT PRE-HEAT! The ceramic is very sensitive to temperature. So stick them in the over THEN turn the over to 350 *
Set a timer for 30 minutes. After the timer is done, turn the oven off let' the mugs cool.
Then enjoy!
F.Y.I. best not to put them in the dishwasher or microwave
