My kids love crafts. They would love to do them every day if I let them. So, they were so excited when I told them they were going to paint their own Christmas plates. They were so easy too! Wash, Paint, Dry.
First, I found these cute little plates in the dollar bin at Target. $1 each. Nice.
Wash. To prep your plates, wash them good, removing any stickers. Then, wipe down with alcohol to be sure there isn’t any soap reside still left on the plate.
Paint. We used Martha Stewart Crafts. The Glass Paint, Stencils, and Stencil Brushes. Get the Martha Stewart Crafts line in-store at Michaels or in Plaid’s online store.
Dry and Cure. There are 2 ways to do this. Air Dry or Bake.
These plates would look great a decorations, but we plan to use ours throughout the holidays. Once your paint is cured, it’s dishwasher safe (on the top rack.) Enjoy!

Do these have to be clear glass plates or will any plate do as long as it’s not plastic?
