DIY Sharpie Mug "Downton Abbey"

In the mood for a little project,

coffee, and Downton Abbey....

So - why not combine it all into one GREAT CRAFT?

 



 

I purchased a plain white mug at Wal-Mart for under $4.

I washed and dried the mug,

then wiped it down with rubbing alcohol with a cotton ball.

Let it dry completely.

I used regular Sharpie pens to write on the mug.

"Don't bother me right now.  I'm watching Downton Abbey."

(if you need help to write in a straight line,

consider lining up painters tape to keep the writing level)

On the other side,

I drew my version of the Dowager Grantham

and a quote from her:

"Vulgarity is no substitute for wit."

 

PREHEAT the oven to 350 degrees.

Bake the mug for 30 minutes.

Let cool completely.

NOT DISHWASHER SAFE! Wash by hand.

 

I hope you try to make some personalized mugs or other dishes

using the SHARPIE method.

The possibilities are endless.

Great gift idea!

Keep Calm and Kerri On.
