How to Customize a Coffee Mug for Father’s Day

Give dad a cup full of love and warmth by customizing a coffee mug for him.

Here’s how to do it:

• Buy a solid-color ceramic coffee mug. Get Dad’s favorite color to make it more special.
• Get his favorite coffee, hot chocolate or tea to put inside.
• Have an adult help you clean the mug with rubbing alcohol.
• Decorate the mug by using craft paint such as acrylic or enamels, or use paint pens.
• Let it sit for 24 hours to dry.
• Have an adult help you put the mug on a cooking sheet and place it in the oven. Check the back of the paint bottle for temperature and time directions.
• Let the mug cool for an hour before gift wrapping.
