Process:

Start by cleaning the mug out. Ensure that you remove the paper stickers on the top as these will burn away when you bake them. One of the best ways to clean out the mugs is by using rubbing alcohol.

Try out your design on a piece of paper to ensure that you get it right. If required, practice a few times to ensure that you have it down pat.

Start drawing the design on the mug using the sharpie paint pen with care. In case you make any mistakes in getting the design on the mug, you can wipe or correct it using the rubbing alcohol. For delicate corrections, you can use the cotton bud dipped in rubbing alcohol to remove the damage.

Once you are completely done with the design, you have to have a bit of patience and let it dry completely. You will need to let it dry for a period of three days or 72 hours to ensure that it is completely dry and ready to bake.

Put the coffee mug in a cold oven and then turn it to 425 degrees after setting the timer to 60 minutes. Once the timer goes off, turn off the oven. But let the mug cool inside the oven itself. The process of starting with a cold oven, baking and letting the mug cool in the oven itself will ensure that there are no cracks in the mug, which is why you need to follow this process.

You will see that the baking process does have a subtle change in the colors used and you can factor this into the process when you are doing the next design and around the colors you use. You will find that hand washing does not affect the color or the design nor does it make the mugs chip.
