Personalised mugs to make
Paint each one in a different colour for each member of a family
Use a lead pencil to lightly draw outline of letter directly onto mug. Fill tip of a paintbrush with enough paint to spot on each dot in one application. To prevent paint dripping, keep dots fairly small and lie mug on its side to dry. We used Pebeo Porcelaine 150 brilliant glossy waterbased paint. When dry, bake in oven at gas mark 2/150ºC (130ºC in a fan oven) for 35 minutes to make paint dishwasher resistant.
Tip: If you can't find the exact colour of paint you need, you can mix colours together.
