Pour hot water into the container and drip nail polish into it (for multicolored pattern use several different varnishes). Take a toothpick and spread it slightly over the surface (you have to work quickly). Then gently dip the dry cup into the container, and the varnish will stick to it by itself. And that's all art. Then just place the cup on a paper towel to dry (give it a few hours, even better if you dry it overnight). If you wish, you can further protect the pattern with acrylic reception, but do not spray it in the place where we drink (you can also use coating for ceramics). It should be added that you need such a cup wash by hand (preferably without a sponge) and not in the dishwasher.
