Plates, plates and more plates!!!

In the midst of cleaning house and starting some packing, I was in charge of the craft for Moms Inc this week. We were making plates using clear glass plates, paper, and mod podge. They turned out wonderful and the ladies had a load of fun making them.

Needless to say I had to bring them home to finish drying completely and spray with a finally coat of sealer to make them more waterproof. So there are 30 plates turned upside down on cups all around our kitchen. Lots of plates-it is humorous to look around and see plates everywhere.

So for lunch today we had a carpet picnic. Lots of fun, if you ever need to spark up your day, try it with your kids. A simple sandwich and piece of fruit sitting on a blanket on the floor can be so exciting to a child. Although I do long for the summer days to come where we can do this outside again, it is one of our favorite things to visit a park and have a picnic.

If you would like to make your own plate or are looking for a fun project idea google mod podge. Their website has tons of ideas and instructions. I hope to do more with this stuff in the future.
