DIY Vintage Silhouette Plates

April 22, 2014 ·

gramophone2 I love the look of these plates! Leaving a little silhouette lets the vintage print show through and turns it into a unique piece of art! gramophone3

    Materials

  • Primer & spray paint in your choice of color. I used Krylon primer and enamel paint in Ocean Breeze //
  • Stickers or sticker paper

Here’s all you need to do:

Print any shape you so desire onto sticker paper, here are a few you can choose from:



Just click and copy or save the one/s you want.

Cut the shape out and stick to your plate on top of a part of the print you’d like to still show through after. Then prime and paint your plate using spray paint. Let the paint dry for at least 24 hours before removing your sticker. If any of the paint has seeped through the edges, you can use the tip of a toothpick the clean it up.

Now hang your artwork using a plate hanger (you can purchase at any super store or arts and craft store) or display it in a small easel.
