Using an old “plowl” (that’s platter-bowl for the uninitiated!), and some ceramic paints to make myself a new fruit bowl!

   
   
From blah and boring to fabulous in less than 3/4 of an hour! (15 minutes for the painting and half an hour to cure in the oven, as per the directions on the paint jar)

   
    
 
There’s nothing more satisfying (and thrifty!) than creating something new and pretty from stuff you have just lying around the house!
