Re-usable cup art

Glass paint on cup
@2014 Itsuka Hiraga

I painted on Starbucks re-usable cups (for cold and hot drinks) with Americana Gloss Enamels. I previously used acrylic paint as I had no knowledge about glass(plastic) painting and thought it would do. However it came off after one used and washed. I soon went to Michaels to look for glass painting and found Americana Gloss Enamels. Cups are plastic and I couldn't bake them to adhere which I could do for glass or ceramic. Hopefully it will last longer.
