We’ve taken
vintage plates to a higher level with paint and other
embellishments.
The dictionary defines a platitude as a
“trite or banal saying”.
As you will see, when you look
at each plate,
many of our designs are painted with
platitudes and humorous sayings.
But we also show a
grateful, spiritual attitude on plates by using
scripture or inspirational quotes.
Each one of a kind
plate is hand painted and baked.
Give them as gifts to
anyone to whom you want to show a little attitude.
