STEP 1: Clean the mug surface with rubbing alcohol. Little Crafter said he was “giving it a bath.”
STEP 2: Dip child’s thumb into the yellow paint and press onto the mug. We left space in between for the bunnies. On our mug, we got four chicks and four bunnies.
STEP 3: Repeat process using whatever color{s} you want for the bunnies.
STEP 4: Add details using a small paintbrush. For the chicks, I added an orange beak and feet and two black eyes. For the bunnies, I drew ears and added little tails.
I think the finished product is simply adorable!!
…but not as adorable as the Little Crafter who made it!
If you like this project, there’s another one you should check out. Last year we did the same basic process, but used stamping ink instead and made framed art, which made a really cute piece of home decor! These kinds of things are not only fun do make, they’re great gifts for doting grandparents!
This is so cute! Lovely idea! 🙂
