Brushstroke Mug Makeover

Shares 0

I love updating plain mugs and if you have been following me for a while you know I love a good little Mug Makeover project.

And if you are new here be sure to check out my Floral Mug , Hand painted Mug and Terrazzo Mug for more inspiration.

Be sure to read all the way till the end since I made a little video showcasing the many different way you can update your mugs.

I first saw these mugs over here and I just had to recreate them since they looked so adorable.

Plain Mugs

DecoArt Gloss Enamel Paints (Red, Orange and Violet)

So I started off with these mugs.

I wanted to make these really colorful at first but then I decided to go with only three colors.

I poured some of the paint on a paper plate and then used a foam brush to create the brushstroke design on it.

Dip the brush into the paint start creating your pattern.

I created vertical strokes all around the Mug.

In the video below you can also see four different ways of creating patterns on your mugs..

When the mugs were almost dry I created a few dots in between the design using Glass Paint Markers.

You could also use a sharpie.

You can go in and layer on the colors if you don’t like the paint to be so sheer.

And finally let the mugs completely dry before using them.

And there you have it.

What do you guys think?

And as always if you guys liked this project be sure to Pin it for later.
