plate, bowl or mug + sharpie + 350 degree oven for 30 mins =
____________________________________________________
Here's what you'll need to make your own:
plate/bowl/mug (from the dollar store)
design of choice (I used this as inspiration)
sharpies
carbon paper (optional)
350 degree oven
____________________________________________________
[1] I started by roughly tracing my design onto my plate with carbon paper
(you could definitely free hand something if you wish)
[2] decorate your plate with sharpie until you are happy with your design
[tip: if you make a mistake, the sharpie will wipe right off the plate -
although the longer it sits, the tougher it is to get off].
[3] bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
Allow to cool.
Voila! Personalized dishes.
So cute!!!!

ReplyDeleteJen!
Thanks for the sweet message. I actually got it at the dollar store... go figure! I was afraid to spend too much money on a nice plate in case it didn't turn out :) You might also be able to find a cute white plate at a HomeGoods, Ross or TJ Maxx. Have fun!
Deletei love this! i just whipped up some mugs over the weekend.
ReplyDeletehow does it wash? I've heard rumour the sharpie method comes off in washing...
ReplyDeleteSo far... I have only hand washed them. I will have to stick one in the dishwasher as a test and let you know :)
