Mark Montano, with Make Your Mark paints these incredible dollar store plates and I’m in awe of how fabulous they are!

I couldn’t believe that one small Marimekko plate costs $37 retail, which is a little too pricey for this gal! What? When you can make them yourself? The way Mark Montano paints these dishes is an extraordinary likeness to these dishes and look at the money you will save! They are so unique and have such an uplifting affect that you will be so proud to display this dishes in your cabinets or while serving a meal to guests.

You’ll need:

  • Americana Yellow, Black and White Gloss Enamel
  • Black Deco Art Glass Paint Marker
  • Paint Brush
  • Pencil
  • Ceramic Dishes
  • Rubbing Alcohol
  • Pilot Marker

It’s so amazing how easy it is to turn these dollar store dishes into these astonishing dishes! After seeing this tutorial, I went out and bought dishes at the dollar store and got busy doing this phenomenal DIY project. I just adore my new plates!

My first question was “can I wash these?” And the answer is yes! You will bake these at 325 degrees for 30 minutes and they should be dishwasher safe. Although, this tutorial doesn’t give you these instructions, I looked up his instructables so you and I would have this information to care for our fabulous works of art! Also, if you are interested in other Marimekko designs, just google them and you will see other options.

Watch how Mark Montano paints these dishes in his step by step tutorial and you can get started doing this amazing project!

Since I lover experiments, Iโ€™ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
