I've seen many pins on Pinterest about designing your own plates with a Sharpie. Hmmmm, cheap and simple? I just HAD to try it. I started with plates from the 99cent Store and a Sharpie.
Inspired by some Halloween die cuts I found at Michaels (and bought with a 40% off coupon), I drew designs on my plates and let them dry for 24 hours.
The next day I baked them at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Then, inspired by this gorgeous tablescape, I prepared for our dinner party. Simply FABULOUS!!!
From what I've researched, these plates should be non-toxic and food safe. But, I noticed that with a little effort, the ink will rub off. And who wants to be eating permanent marker? I've decided to use them for decorative purposes only. I hope you're inspired to recreate your own fabulously simple plates. What will you design?
