Preparation
8 oz white coffee mug with handleScotchBlue Painter’s Tape1-2 small-bristle paintbrushesBlack chalkboard paintWhite chalk ink pen
Rip four strips of tape from the roll and stick them onto the mug, forming a large box.
Dip brush into black paint and color the inside of the box until the area resembles a chalkboard.
Let mug dry for two to three days, so the paint has time to cure.
Remove tape (don’t fuss over blurred edges). Then take an ink pen and draw a design, like the heart shown here, inside the painted box.
Tip: These mugs are hand-wash only and cannot be preserved with sealant (it damages the chalkboard paint).
