Stencil on Coffee Mug
Posted: Mon May 25, 2009 7:52 am
We are going to Alaska (cruise) later this week and I wanted to make something for the "girls"
I used Poplar STD Black font, which must be free since I almost never pay for fonts.
Using patterned contact paper I cut out the names and Alaska 2009
Traced inside the negative with a permanent marker (Sharpie)
I used porcelain paint for the inside.
My old hands are too shaky to make clean lines or paint inside the lines so I just spread the color around. Those with more talent and a steadier hand could do much more but I sure my friends will appreciate them. Oh they come with coffee and a one cup filter for making coffee in your stateroom.
I probably should have done Wine glasses.
