Wednesdays with Handmade Charlotte: 6 Ways To Paint A Cup

I’m always looking for a new surface to paint on in our farmhouse studio. Paper, shoes, walls, furniture, you name it I want to paint it! I found 6 fun ways to paint cups of all styles. This is going to be a project that you can include your entire family in. Jazzing up the paper cup and putting a more serious twist on a ceramic cup, will make your next party a little more colorful. Take this inspiration and let your imagination run wild. I love to paint, so putting more color onto anything makes everything well…better. Have fun and make sure you send in your projects, I always love to see where your creativity is taking you.
