Just bought a group of 4 cups. One white one in the bunch. Is there a food safe paint I could use to paint the other 3? |

Do you have the stickers to print? There is a file with various sizes. Not for sure which one. I never printed one as my printer died and the cups are packed somewhere. Attachment: wy-wings-25percent.jpg [ 84.09 KiB | Viewed 2134 times ] Thanks! Greg |

Good find Greg. That's the file I used; printed it on white label paper [laserjet], stuck it to my mug and triple sprayed with matt varnish. Seems to be ok with [super] gentle hand washing. Pretty sure I used stickers from the top row of the wy-wings jpg file (printed out as A4), I can double check the remaining sheet, but these were approx 8mm high by maaybee 50-55mm long (can't measure the length very well as is wrap around my cup).

Where can I find this file? Tried printing but came out very low resolution. |

I've been collecting them for a while now (several years) and I have three... The last one I got is the dirtiest. Anyway, I have that wing file sheet on my external drive. I'll try to post it full-resolution tonight if I remember. I was planning to try using a color printer that uses powder toner (thermal set) and placing the printed image onto the cup, and then setting it onto the plastic with a heat gun or iron. The cup has a texture to it and a sticker (unless a die-cut) will look bad on there. Some sort of stencil and airbrush would probably look best... |

Thanks! Just don't know how durable it would be if it got wet. Might have to spray a clear over it. But would you really want to drink from it then? |

Well, you drink from the opposite side… (unless you’re left handed) |
