I’m going to try a DIY making some designs on a mug with a Sharpie. I’m also going to share some tips I learned to help make them last!
I found some great You Tube videos that demonstrate how to DIY your own mug designs. I won’t even bother trying to recreate the steps. Just watch this video by Shutterfly!
If you watch a few other videos you’ll see that there’s variability in the temperature you should bake the mugs at. The most common tip I found was to bake at 425 F for 30min.
The other tip I leaned was to put the mugs in the oven as it’s warming up. After they’ve completed their bake time keep them in the oven until it’s completely cooled. (About 2 hours)
