Plate redo vinyl style

Out garage saling a few weeks ago I picked up these two plates for about .25 cents eacj. One plate was teal and the other plate a pale yellow. They were most likely from the 70’s or early 80’s I brought them home and scrubbed them up.


I wanted to do the chevron stripes on the plates but got frustrated with working to convert my stripes into an svg file so I found this pattern online and did the conversion just fine. I will continue to figure out the stripes but today is not the day 😉

With having a smaller cricut I have found I am limited on how big I want to cut things so I had to improvise a bit with this plate. I have decided crafting at midnight when I have to get up at 6:00 a.m. doesn’t work very well. I did finish the plate but spent more time then I would have liked smoothing out the bubbles in the vinyl. Maybe next go round it will be the stripes so I won’t cuss as much 😉

See those darn bubbles.. I got a small heat gun that should take them out. I have never had anything bubble up on me like this so it was a very new experience to me.

Here is my plate redo!
