When you are a bride you want to personalize everything… just put ‘Bride’ on it and I’ll buy it! But the problem is that if it says Bride, it costs more! So why not just do-it-yourself! Super cute coffee mugs to drink out of on your wedding day with a darling message from your fiancé! And after you finish this adorable project make sure you put the porcelain paint pens to good use and make {this} project as well!!!

After the first writing has dried, write your special message to your fiancé on the other side of the mug.

…and have your fiancé write a message on your mug as well! Yes, me and handsome hubby switched jobs for once… he wrote me a cute message and I photographed him! He’s so cute.

After the paint has dried for 24 hours, place your mugs on a cookie sheet and in a cold oven. Turn the oven on to 300 degrees F and bake for a total of 35 minutes. Turn the oven off and let the mugs cool down inside. After oven cured these mugs will be dishwasher safe. *Note: these are the instructions for these exact porcelain paint pens – if you purchase another brand please refer to those directions!
