DIY Painted Glass Mug

This is such a fun mug! I was browsing at Michael’s and found this glass mason jar with a handle and thought it would look really cute with a stenciled design on it. I also found a colored lid with a hole for a straw. I could already see it in my mind.

Things You Will Need:
Lid
Straw
Stencil
Mason jar
Paint brush
Glass paint

*Get reusable stencils. They stick to whatever you’re painting on and come clean with hot water. You can reuse them as many times as you want.

Step 1
Stick your stencil onto your mug. Press your finger down across the glass to make sure the stencil is flat.

Step 2
Paint the glass paint over top of the stencil. Depending on the brand you chose,  you might need a few layers of paint.

Do this the whole way around the mug.

 

Step 3
Follow the directions on the paint you chose. Mine tells me to let the paint dry for 4 days and then bake the glass in the oven at 325 degrees for 30 mins. Yours might be different.

I don’t know if I can wait 4 days! I’m pretty excited 🙂

Let me know what you think! Would you make one? What kind of design would you use on it?
