Dollar Tree Christmas Plate
“The best way to spread CHRISTMAS cheer
is singing LOUD for all to hear.”
The quote above come from one of my FAVORITE Christmas movies.
ELF
I must admit if I were singing loud for all to hear, people would probably ask for earmuffs instead of thanking me for spreading Christmas cheer. But luckily for me, my imaginary friends in the car
(and my husband) don’t mind :o) so I sing on!
And would you believe like some kind of divine intervention, ELF was on TV as I made this
Christmas plate.

I love that movie…and have a hard time believing it came out 8 years ago.
But back to why you are probably here!

Just curious if there was a way to seal this so that it could be used to actually eat off? I would be interested in making this a gift project
Hey Anna,
I wish I knew a way to seal it for eating, unfortunately I had made it to be more of a decorative plate so I’m not sure. Let me know if you find out!
If you decorate the plate with Sharpies instead of painting, you can set the color by placing in a 350º oven for 30 minutes. Works great.
The extract is more crystallized and stronger than other green green coffee bean extract side effectss.
Green green coffee bean extract side effects contains natural caffeine.
However, if you have not been thoroughly studied and researched for its effects on the hypothalamus of
the brain to increase your metabolic rate and energy burning activity of the cells that make insulin.

Guess I am showing my age, ignorance, whatever here, but what is “Silhouette”? The plate is gorgeous!
It’s a digital cutting machine that hooks up to your computer and can cut out different shapes, fonts, etc. :o)
Thank you for explaining it to me.
I can't tell you how much I love this plate! Absolutely adorable! I have to share my experience with this project though. Check out my blog post about it for a good laugh:

Ok.. I must have like the worst $1 dollar stores near me. I can never find plates like this. This is adorable and would make a great gift too!! I guess I will have to venture out to other $1 stores.
