Aren’t those plates great? I only wish that Easter was a bit later this year so I could have enjoyed them longer! 🙂 Ah well…there’s next year! Yes, that yellow chalk paint is such a pretty soft shade, and painting on paper mache is much easier than styrofoam, which I’ve also done. LOL

They look so much easier to paint than styrofoam ones, plus half the time, loose, unwrapped papier-mache products in a craft store look as if little (and not-so-little) bites have been taken out of them!

I’m enamored with the yellow shade of chalky finish paint that you chose–it’s so soft and delicate–and the burlap flowers are the perfect embellishment for the eggs. Oh, and as a huge fan of vintage holiday (and many everyday) items, I am In Love with your plates!!! What a sweet find!

Thank you, Laura, for another wonderful tutorial! xoxo
