I found an idea for stenciling mugs that originated at House of Joyful Noise blog.
I ran straight out to my local Dollar Tree and found these huge mugs for my project - $1!
I had planned to etch the mugs, but etching cream was a little intimidating and pricey for this project.
Instead, I tried Martha Stewart's glass paint in the frost color to get the same effect. I also chose a stencil of hers and spelled out the word "COACH"
I protected all exposed glass with painter's tape...
Then applied the paint with a tapping motion...
Baked for 30 minutes...
Let cool...
Wrapped...
Stuff your mugs with peanuts, candy, a t-shirt...Easy Peasy!
Great idea and I love the way it turned out. Thanks for sharing :)

ReplyDeleteHi there!
ReplyDeleteThanks for crediting us (House Of Joyful Noise) for this idea with your coach mugs! I appreciate that. They came out awesome, and what great ideas you added for stuffing them! Coaches DO love them, to really use, or put on a shelf as a momento for that season. Just an FYI - because I can't tell from your post if you knew this, but ours are not etched with any products. They are actually just done with frosted vinyl! So for anyone who has a cutter machine, it's a pretty fast and easy optional route to making these.
Hope your coaches love them! : )
