I don’t know about you but if you add glitter to anything you will put an instant smile on my face. Today we will be making Glitter Dishes!

I started playing around with paper plates a few weeks ago creating a few easy ways to “dress” them up. I think I was successful with it, what do you think?! I mean, I truthfully hate washing dishes and putting them up so why not serve anyone out of fancy paper plates. It’s not like I am having Christmas at my house but if I did I would lay all these babies out!

Check out these I made with ribbon and these with lace!

I coated the underneath of the bowl just to add a little more love. thingstodowithglitterglitteredplatesglitterdishesIt’s seriously that simple! Fun thing is you can make them for every holiday and it will not break the bank.

What will you use your glittered bowls for?

Well hello you cute little Black and White Striped Fridge!

I was wondering why I keet going back to the fridge lately but maybe i’t’s the stripes! I’ve never been more excited to get eggs and milk than I am now!

Oh and stripes makes all the food inside taste better, hehe. Let’s get started!BLACKANDWHITEICEBOX

YOUWILLNEED*Scissors * Sharpie * Ruler * Dry Erase Laminate *Chalkboard Laminate 
dryeraseandchalkboardlaminateThe first thing you want to do is layout your adhesive paper. I love this paper because you can simply peel the back off and voila! duckbranddryerasefilm

Once your paper is flat on a table grab a ruler and place it on the side of sheet. You will see on the sides of the paper (on the back) that there are lines already there for you. I placed the ruler on the second main line. It made my lines about 2 inches wide. dryeraseducktapeWhile your ruler is down grab your sharpie and trace over the line. This will just make it easier to cut. If you feel secure cutting the line that is already there then you don’t need to use sharpie.

Are you in love yet? stripedfridgeI love drawing on each line. The great thing is this will not damage your fridge at all! You can peel it all off whenever you want.

Decorative Paper Plates Supplies

I love this brand of paper plates. However you can use any type or brand for this project.
Recycled Paper PlatesDecorative Paper Plates and BowlsTo start you will grab your hole puncher and punch holes around the edges of your paper plate or bowl. How to Punch PAPER PLATESThis is what it should look like. You can put the holes close together or far apart. PUNCHED PAPER PLATESCut a few thin strips of fabric. They have to be small enough to go through the holes. HOW TO CUT FABRICDecorative Paper Plates with fabricStart putting the ribbon through the holes. You can go through the holes from the top or the bottom , either way works. Decorative Paper Plates using fabric recycleI like to finish my edges with a bow. It just adds a nice touch to it.diy decor paper platesDecorative Paper Plates with fabric decorHow simply cute is this project! The best part is when your guests are done eating you can just throw everything away.

How will you decorate your bowls and plates?
