august 15th

hmm,each CT were given two plain mugs to decorate for teacher's day gift.
and SOMEHOW it always end up being the job of an AEP student..
anyway,szeying and I were testing out different mediums to see which on stays on the mug even after washing,we tried using acrylic paint,permenant markers etc,and only spray paint seems to be the most lasting.


firstly, use a pen knife to cut out shapes that you want out of masking tape.

secondly,cover the areas which are meant for drinking,and seal it properly using masking tape.

third,stick the shapes you've cut out onto the mug.

fourth,place a sheet of paper under the mug,and when u spray paint onto it,do not aim directly on the mug,aim onto the paper and spray.
*start with light colours,for eg: yellow before orange

when you're done.peel off the tape and let it dry.

you should get something like this.

takes around 10 minutes.quick and easy :)
