Keep It Personal

Here is a fun way to help guests keep track of their holiday beverages: Paint small patches of latex blackboard paint (1824-105) on inexpensive wine glasses (4256-450), coffee mugs (4250-994/893) and any other receptacle that inspires your creativity. The paint comes in pre-mixed black, but it also can be tinted into beautiful colours. Soap and water clean up.

STEP-BY-STEP

1. Simply determine the area you want to paint, mask it off with tape (1670-089).
2. Brush on with a polyester brush (5712-142). Multiple coats may be required.
3. Remove tape. Let it dry for 7 days before using chalk on it. To remove the tape, use Goof Off (4522-378). (Not recommended on plastic)
