happy summer sunshine serving plate

never underestimate the power 
of a thrift store, 
as there are hidden gems such as this: 
but i did make it, like so:
ok ok so i know it's one in a bajillion trillion chances you will go to good will and find the same exact plate. so what the heck good is this post? well, you can actually do this on any clear serving platter or large plate if you want. 
yay for you!

ok so let's see what's next.
(hey! anybody see the bottle this giant bottlecap belongs to?)
the only thing left for me to do is ask myself why i want to put faces and smileys on everything?!?

hmmm...

:>O

:>P
