Monogrammed mugs

Tuesday, November 29, 2011
My latest craft venture has been monogrammed mugs. I adore Anthropologie's monogrammed mugs and wanted to try my hand at making my own. Over the weekend, my mom and I did just that. The beauty in this project is you can make the design as simple or intricate as you want (no freehand drawing involved, only stencils). My mom and I did a simple monogram since this was our first time.

Next, I'm going to make a monogrammed mug for my dad so we'll all have matching mugs. We're very cheesy that way ;) And after that, maybe I'll venture into making some more intricate designs.

This is a great idea. I don't know why I never thought too much of this.

Nice! I just ordered some porcelaine markers this week to draw on cups and such.. they're a lot less messy and so easy to use!
