'Let's Stay Home' Enamel Mug: Step 1

Use the Washi tape to create your guide lines for your lettering. You can split the phrase 'Lets stay home' across two lines by using one piece of Washi tape.

'Let's Stay Home' Enamel Mug: Step 2
Using the tape as a guide, use your dark blue posca pen to write your first words above the strip of tape.

'Let's Stay Home' Enamel Mug: Step 3
So that the cup looks balanced, and using your tape as a guide, add ‘Home’ below as centrally as you can to the 'Lets Stay'.

'Let's Stay Home' Enamel Mug: Step 4
Now you can begin with your floral pattern. Create ditsy florals with this simple 4 petal shape, try not to worry too much about it looking perfect. Now work these floral shapes across the mug.

'Let's Stay Home' Enamel Mug: Step 5
Using another colour, add your leaf shapes around the florals. These are similar to teardrop shapes and can be as big or small as you’d like.

'You, Me & a Cup of Tea' Enamel Mug: Step 3
To create the garden around the words you’ll need to draw curved lines, then add teardrop shapes along the line to create foliage style illustrations.

Colour these in so that you have a full coloured foliage stem, and then work these motifs around your lettering so that you create a garland frame.
