Lately I have been using my gold leaf paint on just about everything. I have another project this week I will share with you using gold leaf paint. The first one is these painted mugs. They were super simple. I just used a toothpick to make the tiny designs and words on the mugs. To seal the paint on the mug: put the mug in a cool oven, heat it to 300 degrees and let the mug bake for 30 minutes. Turn off the oven and let the oven cool before removing the mug-to make sure the temperature change isn’t too dramatic for the mug-to make sure it doesn’t crack.
