[bringing up boys, and...]
So here I am, having a lovely Saturday afternoon painting some dainty little tea party plates.
Jon gets home. Little A: "Dad! Mom made you a plate!". No sooner do I turn around when I see this mischievousness going on.
I see pennants. Apparently my boys see something entirely different. Something along the lines of scary, sharp teeth...
Guess I'll have to do a customized set just for my little monsters.
*addendum: Jon drew the face and put it together initially. When I went to photograph the before and after Little A refused to let me take the eyes and nose off and kept putting them back on...so I caught him in the act. And yes, that is a chocolate smear on his arm.
**If you are wanting to make your own custom plates, I used black Ceramcoat paint (instructions on bottle). The plates I found at a local thrift store (they only had two).
That is really cute. Not to mention, a very stylish, uber-minimalist monster.
