Upcycled Mandala Serving Dish
"There are these moments that you open your capboards in your kitchen and you see it! No, I am not talking about the mess, because we are excellent on storing things, but I am talking about the old things that you have kept and you do not use them. Like the old serving dish I had in blue and white. Maybe you liked it in the past, but now you consider it not your taste and you keep hiding it in the capboard. So, it is time to decide... through it away or upcycle it? For me the decision was obvious...the second choice please! It is diy time! DIY Upcycled Mandala Serving Dish!!!!"

Why You'll Love This Trash to Treasure Craft
1. It's Eco-Friendly: By upcycling an old serving dish, you are giving it a new life instead of letting it go to waste. This project helps reduce waste and allows you to contribute to a more sustainable lifestyle.
2. It's Budget-Friendly: Instead of buying a brand new serving dish, you can save money by upcycling an existing one. With just a few simple materials, you can transform something old into something beautiful and functional.
3. It's a Creative Outlet: Making a mandala serving dish allows you to tap into your creativity and express yourself through art. You can choose different colors, patterns, and designs to make it uniquely yours.
4. It Makes a Great Gift: Handmade gifts are always special, and a personalized mandala serving dish is no exception. Whether you make it for a friend, family member, or yourself, it's sure to be appreciated and cherished.

I have yet to work with any type of stencil. I can remember when it was all the rage to paint on the walls with stencils and now it has come full circle to paint on plates. Well, I am not artistic in that way at all so this is a great project for me. I think this would look great as a wall hanging.

I am forever trolling the thrift stores in my area. I have a collection of charges in just about every color. With them being second hand they do show a little wear. This is the perfect project to give a little tender loving care to the charges that are showing the worst wear.

I don't buy so many plates or serving dishes because I rarely have people over and I mostly eat out so this is a welcome idea. Stenciling is perfect if you don't have time, want perfection and can't paint. Give those old dishes a makeover and you have a brand new set.

What a creAtive idea. I have a bunch of plain white dishes that I keep threatening to toss out but never do. I guess a part of me thinks the minute I do, I will think of a way of using them and regret throwing them away. Well I think I have found that moment!
