All Fired Up

Last week I went with the girls from my Sunday school class to this little place in Northport called "All Fired Up". It's a store where you can buy ceramic pieces, paint them, and get them fired (glazed). There are so many ceramic items to choose from. They have picture frames, toothbrush holders, plates/cups/bowls/, holiday decorations, piggy banks, etc. After you get your piece glazed it is microwave/dishwasher safe, which helped me decide to get a plate to paint. I sat for a long time trying to think of what to paint on it. I finally decided to paint a Christmas colored plate with some polka dots. For the base, I chose a paint that had some texture beads in it which explains the little green speckles.



I was kinda having a "creativity block" that night. I'm pleased with my plate but I'm ready to go back and make something better....anyone care to go with? :)
