Personalized Plates

 
We went to The Dollar Tree today and purchased 6 plain white ceramic plates. Caity, Colton and Cheyanne decorated the with Sharpies.
Then I baked then @ 300 degrees for 20 minutes.
I think they turned out beautifully.
 
These would make great Christmas gifts.

Glad you posted this. I've been wanting to try it and then saw a blog that tried it and it didn't work (the marker washed off). Any problems with that? I'll give it a try now. Thanks

My kids saw it and could not wait to make it (because it is a bug). I made some modifications to it to make it a little easier for younger kids. Do not be scared of the paint because you do not have to use it. I know paint can be messy. You will need toilet paper roll, scissors, glue, pom-poms, paint or markers or green construction paper for the body (to make the toilet paper roll green), wiggly eyes, chenille stems, green foam sheet or construction paper and a pencil. Have the kids paint the toilet paper roll green. OR you can have them color it with a marker OR just wrap it in green construction paper and glue it. While the paint is drying, I get all the pieces set up to glue on. I used foam sheets to cut out legs but construction paper will work too. For the nose, I cut a triangle out of craft ...
