This super quick and easy project was inspired by the recent pride parade and Dyke march, which took place over the weekend. What better way to honour the Pride parade than a pun, a plate, and some decoupage?!

Materials:

Plate (value village, IKEA, grandmother’s)

Paper clippings (newspaper, magazine, etc.)

Paint brush

Decoupage/ Gel medium

Scissors

Step 1: Find and cut out images and words from magazines and newspapers (magazine weight paper usually works better). Mix and match until new meanings form with the juxtaposition (4 years of art school) of these images and words.

Step 2: Arrange on plate until happy with placement. Use the paint brush to spread the decoupage or gel medium over the paper. A nice thin layer without bumps. Note: don’t brush over the paper too many times or else it will rip or the ink will smudge.

Step 3: Let dry.

Bask in your own genius hilarity!
