I went to Bryce’s house on Tuesday and re-discovered my plate!
Believe it or not, Bryce painted it! Pretty good huh?
If you’re interested in stuff like this, I’d check out a store called Clay Cafe. Not only can you paint your own designs like Bryce did, but there are ready-made clay figures (among other things) for you to paint! Whatever color you want. How dark you want it. You make the choice.
They have things like this:
Or this.
Or this.
And I love how it lets you be as creative as you want.
I painted my mom a cup and even painted a mini dinosaur figure for Bryce. It’s a lovely store. And they host parties and classes! I’m not sure if they have any other locations, but the one in Hawaii is located at Ward Warehouse.
So if you’re in need of a different type of Christmas or birthday gift, and you love being creative, I would check this place out.
My plate definitely made me smile and it’s just so unique. So even though you don’t get the instant gratification of a purchase from a store, this gift will definitely be memorable. One for the ages. Now I’m just being dramatic.

The cup was left out intentionally! It’s so junk compared to Bryce’s plate :-P.

Wow, Bryce is an artist! I would need paint by numbers or it would turn out looking like stick figures 😉 My mom went there once and said it was really fun.

Bryce is actually REALLY good at drawing (and I guess painting) :-P. He even tried to paint varying shades of color, which is most evident on the penguin. He far surpasses me in stuff like this! (Which I have no problem admitting to because it’s obvious haha!)
