#5 Celebration Plate

I love Nikki's blog, Whimsy Love, she has such great ideas and her tutorials are very thorough! Her tutorial for a Celebration Plate has me inspired! I am really excited to do this craft with my MOPS group this May. I think they are really going to love it and it's so much cheaper than those pottery painting places where I made my first Happy Birthday plate. So, the things that make this easy are drawing on the top with a dry erase marker before you paint on the back and using the "air dry" method so that you don't have to bake everybody's plate. (We don't even have an oven at the church where we meet!) Be sure to plan a little extra time for this one if you can and remind everyone that whatever they paint first will be "on the top". I found the plates at the Dollar Tree for $1 each and the paints are at Michael's and Hobby Lobby. Be sure to get the paint that says it is for painting on glass :-) Happy painting!
