DIY Decorative Mugs

My mom loves Big Bang Theory and I knew that the perfect Mother's Day gift would focus around that. I did some searching on Etsy as well as the CBS store but couldn't decide what I wanted. Eventually I decided to make my own mugs with Sheldon Quotes!

The supplies for this are simple, I ordered white mugs and ceramic paint pens off Amazon and that was all I needed! One of the great things about these pens is that if you make a mistake you can still fix them before they dry.

To make the mugs dishwasher safe, simply bake at 300 degrees for 35 minutes. I put them on a cookie sheet but this probably wasn't necessary. The pens said to wait 24 hours before baking; I kept putting it off and finally baked them about a week and a half after I first wrote on them.

Here are the final mugs. I gave them to my mom on Sunday and she loved them!

I hope you had a good Mother's Day!
