gozo 4 Posted November 26, 2012 Very nice work, Was it a wet or dry fit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VinylExposure 4 Posted November 27, 2012 Very nice work, Was it a wet or dry fit? Thank you! Dry fit... I basically cut, weed & layer all of my vinyl & then I trim it into a circle to fit the shape of the plate. Then, to contour to the plate, I make stress cuts all the way around the edge (in between the words) & tape the whole decal where I want it. Then I cut the words around the edge off individually and apply them (like a puzzle) That way I can make minor adjustments if I don't get it squared up exactly around the plate. I go around the outside of the plate first & then I'm left with the center piece of the circle to do last. It's tedious but I've found it's the easiest, especially when working with several colors of vinyl. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VinylExposure 4 Posted December 1, 2012 Vinyl Exposure, where did you get the plates themselves from?those are cool, My wife loves them so now I have to make her 1.Thanks JP Thanks! In my first post, all of the plates (except the "Gray" platter with the green G) came from Pier 1. They don't offer the oval platter or the teal round platter anymore (I bought those last year). Carved white charger , Amber mosaic charger (The "Gray" platter was about $13 from Walmart. It's not on their site but they are in store) In my second post, those came from Target's website HERE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
