Special

We totally ganked this idea from our friends. So please give all creative credit to them for the inspiration...
Cousin Lizzie assisted me in choosing the colors and in warming up the paintbrushes with some water:)
Applying the blue sky, then the clouds...
The letters didn't turn out like I wanted bc I didn't realize my tube of paint was messed up until I was finished writing...you can still read it so I guess it's ok!
A week later with the shoppe (two 'p's and an 'e' very fancy) glazing it and firing it, and Wah-lah! 


 We can't wait to use the plate on special days in the Rivers' household! Wonder who will be first?
