Vintage China Wall Art

I have been collecting vintage china dishes for years. There are so many beautiful patterns and designs. 
 I thought it would be fun to use some of these china plates as canvases and paint some of my bird images.
It's also fun to take an old photo and use a china plate as a picture frame. A large circle hole punch makes it easy to cut the photo (I used a color copy of the original photo.) Then a bit of glue to attach the round photo to the plate.

  4. I love the idea of putting pictures on vintage plates. I have so many plates in boxes. They're coming out of the boxes to fill my walls. Thank you for fantastic idea.
