Dollar Day Creation
Have you ever had a color scheme and didn't have matching dishes? Ever have a get together and don't want to use your best china or paper products either and want to make it different than the norm? What about color coordinating your plates to your decor?

I made a M (of course) using scrapbook paper. You don't have to do this step but I thought it would be cool if you know who is coming, you could put each person's initial on plates. They can take it home with them and use it for display. Put an even amount of Mod Podge on plate.
I used some remnant fabric I had but you could also use scrapbook paper, tissue, or wrapping paper. Fabric was really easy to work with though. I put another layer of Mod Podge on back. I'm not sure you need this step but I thought it would be a good sealer. Wait about 20 minutes until completely dry.

I like that. It's something really different & most people could do it. Neat.
