There they are, everywhere: unglazed glasses, dishes, and more, just begging for splashes of color and design to dress them up. Answer the call with over 300 simple, beautiful ways to decorate anything you can find! You won't need any drawing skills to apply these easy-to-paint patterns in every style.
