When I'm poking through the dish section at the thrift store I always wonder who buys the mismatched coffee mugs with weird company logos on them? The answer, my friends, is me. I grabbed several for a song and went wild with Americana Gloss Enamels to create my own Jackson Pollock tea set. Not only do I love this set, I figured out a way to make it dishwasher safe! Make sure to follow the instructions for curing and baking so that they last a lifetime. Have a blast, use every color in the box and don't forget to Make Your Mark!
A tea set for the artist in you!

HERE'S HOW
1. Tape around the mouth of the mug

don't worry about being perfect

6. & 7. With the mugs face down, start splattering all of your favorite colors on all sides of each piece
