A great option for a gift for the New Year, for example, for the whole family, or for the day of all lovers, for a couple and for many other holidays - mugs. This is the thing in the house that is always needed in everyday life and is used every day. And most importantly - you can surprise any person with such a gift, and it is very simple and not expensive.
All that is needed to create a unique mug is:
- An ordinary white mug purchased at any convenience store (the material does not matter). The cost of such a mug does not exceed 500 rubles;
- a large, deep plate or pan (which is not a pity to spoil);
- colored nail polishes. Absolutely different companies and colors for every taste;
- nail polish remover and some cotton pads.
1. So, the first thing to do is to thoroughly wash the decorated mug with soap and wipe it dry.
2. Pour water into a pot or other container. Water should be at such a level that, putting a mug in the pan, it should stand rather than swim, but at the same time, the water level should not reach the top of the mug.
3. Prepare and open the varnishes that you want to use. For example 5 different colors. Dripping each varnish into water a few drops in different directions, but closer to the center.
4. Dip the mug in the very center of the cluster of varnishes and make a couple of circular motions, up and down movements. Here you need to include fantasy.
5. Remove the mug from the water and turn it over, let it dry for 24 hours.
6. After the mug has dried, wipe the unnecessary varnish from the bottom of the mug. You can also correct the picture, remove unnecessary elements, nail polish remover.
Done! A wonderful, bright, and most importantly unique mug as a gift is waiting for the right occasion! A nuance to remember: it is better that the area of decorating with varnish does not reach the place on the cup that is touched by the lips. And such mugs are categorically not dishwasher safe! Only hands. The impact on them of sponges for washing dishes is absolutely safe, and the dishwasher in a couple of steps will ruin the whole picture. This moment, you can tell the recipient of the gift in a comic form at the time of delivery, or write about it in a small postcard that will be complete with the main gift.
