I got new paint! I read about an artist, Ellen Kroeze, who uses old China and paints objects over the existing patterns. Her stuff is beautiful! I highly suggest looking her up. And even though I don’t need another project, it looked so interesting that I wanted to try it. After a bit of research, I found Pebeo porcelain paint that works like watercolor and after baking, is permanent and dishwasher safe.

Tonight I pulled out a white mug I had and practiced for a while. I must say, I’m pretty happy with the paint. I think it will be fun to work with and can imagine doing some holiday-themed items, especially for Halloween. I’m always thankful when crafting is fun instead of frustrating. Of course, this only makes my creative to-do list even longer…

You can see the image I was trying to copy. Not great, but it’s a resemblance. More practice!
