Hey, friend!,
If you’re looking for a project that is easy and cheap but looks like something you might buy in a store, I’ve got the perfect one for you! These watercolour painted mugs have a marbled effect and are also dishwasher and microwave safe.
The main thing I wanted to achieve here was to make the paint appear watery and diluted, and I figured out the perfect method to do so. While I had seen previous tutorials for painting mugs and dishes, none of those options allowed you to create them quickly (the Mod Podge ceramic glaze method requires about a month curing time!), and many other methods didn’t allow for dishwasher safe and non-toxic paint (nail polish!? no thanks…).
