No Empty Chairs -- Decorative Plate
Hello, all! I hope you're all starting to recover from the hustle, bustle, and fun of the holiday season, and that you had a wonderful and special time with your families. We were busy, busy, but we had a wonderful time together. And now I finally have a few minutes to start posting a few of my projects! This first one is a decorative plate I made for my wonderful mom for her birthday. The idea of "no empty chairs" came from a talk from Elder Henry B. Eyring, one of the leaders of our church, and it means that we want to have all our family together in Heaven. My mom loved it so much she asked to have it engraved on her headstone, but I didn't think she should wait so long to enjoy it... :) I bought the brown charger from a local home decor store, then I designed the vintage chair and flourishes and used SCAL to cut them out of gold and cream vinyl with my Cricut.

Beautiful and so thoughtful...great design on the chair. Thanks for sharing!
Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now keep it up!
Did you cover the vinyl with a sealant? I love the idea of decorating a charger with meaningful sentiments.
This is such a beautiful idea. I love the symbolism, and the thought of having it there to see daily. This is one of my favorite conference talks!
