A Painted Tea Cup

One of my favorite people in the whole world just had a birthday.

She's a self-proclaimed tea snob so when I saw this cute painted tea cup idea on Pinterest, I had to make it.  I used a porcelain paint pen and baked the cup in the oven to make it permanent {I've seen that you can write with a Sharpie and bake it to make it permanent but I'm not sure I trust the longevity of that method.}

I packaged the tea cup with a jar of my favorite tea.  It's not Murchie's but I hope she'll like it.

  10. I'm curious to know if it held up going through the dishwasher? Thinking about doing this as a craft for our ladies retreat in two weeks!

  14. FYI: It's been through the dishwasher twice and the tea bag motif is doing just fine.
