Um, yes. WE DID.
We (Elise, Jessie and I) made CHALKBOARD MUGS. We are super cool.
This was an awesome, fun, exciting project! I highly recommend it!
Paint your mugs with Chalkboard Paint.
You'll do TWO COATS.
One coat horizontal, one vertical.
Dry one hour between coats.
Then, it needs to dry 24 hours.
Ugh... longest 24 hours of MY LIFE!
Lightly rub chalk on the finished mug to 'condition'.
Clean off with some H20 and starting COLORING!!!
Now, some "Mug Shots"... Haha. Oh, me.
Oh, also, during our 'Chalkboard Mug Making Night',
we also got some pretty sweet tattoos of Ray from 'Princess and the Frog'...
(aka MY BFF... she blogged about this too... check it out!)

Thanks friends!
Mucho LOVE!

Seriously??? I LOVE this. I'm so making one of these. . .
I've been wondering if chalkboard paint would work ok/not wash off on glass/ceramics. I'm guessing it did! :)
What kind of paint did you use for the handle?
Those turned out too cute!
Um. Super cute. Definitely making me and the husband some. :]
So can you wash it?? I assume no dishwasher? Just wondering - - so fun!
That would be cute for valentines day....wake up to a fun message!
I have never heard of anything like it. Definitely a unique craft, very cool.

Such a fun idea!!! I love chalkboard ANYRHING! But I was wondering/thinking the same thing as Mandy... can it be washed??
Can I echo a few other comments? CAN it be washed? And... is it safe to drink out of?
Hey lady - I'm having a few mommies over tomorrow for a play date and we are making these for Mothers Day (grandmas). I have a few questions...
Can it be washed in the dishwasher?
Is it safe to drink out of?
Has any of the paint came off at all?
Please let me know, so I can share with my mommy group.
Thanks and LOVE LOVE the idea!
Cute idea!

Another fantastic idea!! Chalkboard paint is seriously awesome!
