Hand Painted Porcelain

Posted in DIY, Things of Beauty by evie s. on December 27th, 2007

I hope everyone had a pleasant holiday filled with joy, love, and giving! I’m happy to be getting back in the groove of things but still enjoying an easy pace before the New Year hits.

I tried out this craft from Martha Stewart Living and wanted to share the results. These salt and pepper shakers were painted for my mother to match her other red table accessories. We used them for our Christmas Eve dinner, and they fit in nicely with the festive theme. They were plain white porcelain shakers from Pottery Barn, but really any kind will do as long as the surface is smooth. It is such a fun and easy project, and I hope to make myself some hand painted porcelain to enjoy on my holiday table next year.
