How To Make Fingerprint Flowers For Mother’s Day
- On a piece of scrap paper try your colour combinations and practice printing your design. We used damp kitchen paper to clean up.
2. Copy the design onto the cup, cleaning fingers in between colours.
3. Use a paint brush to add stem and antennae if needed.
4. Allow the paint to dry & bake in a low oven according to paint instructions.
5. For extra protection, use this sealer which will help keep the paint from coming off. It’s safe for top rack dishwasher use however to be extra careful we would recommend hand washing these mugs.
