Try out a few designs on paper before decorating a mug. When ready, lay the mug on its side and apply the glaze, which is a little thicker than India ink, with the brush or a cotton swab.
-
Let the painted mug air-dry for at least 24 hours.
-
Set the glaze by baking the mug in a preheated 325 degree oven for 35 minutes.

- Tips:
