There are so many wonderfully sweet copper to bargain at the flea market and save from furthest-behind-the-cabinet-fate.
You need good old cups, saucers or egg cups, porcelain color.
Before you start - make sure the porcelain is clean and dry. We test burned even our cups in the oven before we started decorating, because we were unsure whether they would keep the oven. Then it's just to let loose with the colors. Read the instructions on the colors you use.
1. The idea is simple - take a nice but unused china and decorate on. We have used pens from Panduro , one can of course use regular porcelain color but we think the pens are much easier to work with. Sure it will be fine!
2nd In our color instructions were that we had to wait a day before we burned. Sigh ... 3. The cups are then fired in a regular TINY KITCHEN OVEN on the degree number that is in the instructions. Our creations would burn for 35 minutes at 150 degrees.
And the result? We serve our tea now more like this ...
And ... this! We have run our cups in the dishwasher and it has gone well. Keep in mind that if there is metal in the décor goes china not to run in the microwave.
