Supplies for Painted Birthday Party Plate:

glass or ceramic plate glass paints – we used DecoArt’s Frost Gloss Enamels paint brush or sponge brush stencils – happy birthday and a sunburst from DecoArt which are awesome and stick to the surface!

  1. Wash and dry your plate. Follow the instructions on the paint bottle for the best results.

  2. Place your Happy Birthday stencil on one end of the ceramic plate and press it down to stick.

  3. Dab your sponge brush with paint and dab the paint onto the plate. Do this for each color you’d like to use. I had a napkin and wet wipe next to my area to help save with time and changing out my paint colors.

  4. Pull up your stencil carefully until it’s removed. Now, you can be done here or paint another one. I chose to place my stencil down on the opposite side and repeat step 3.

  5. For the center of the ceramic plate, add the sunburst stencil and paint in a couple of colors with your sponge brush. Lift the stencil and do this 2 more times to make them go all across your plate.

  6. Let the paint dry. You can bake it as well to make it dishwasher safe. Be sure to follow the instructions on the paint bottle.

Once it’s done and dry, it’s ready for some cupcakes. Happy Birthday!
