The 14th is this week — remember what the 14th of each month is?  The day I’m dedicating to random acts of kindness.  Did you do anything for Valentine’s day last month?  This month I hope you’ll join me!Random Acts of Kindness - Just Because Plate supplies

I’ve seen sharpie mugs and plates all over the internet and have been dying to make one.  I found this tutorial from Scribbles from Emily and followed it to make this “Just Because” plate.  I wanted to make a plate that could be passed around from person to person for no good reason,  just because.
I got my plate (more like a curved plate- bowl possibly?) at the dollar store and the sharpies and graphite at Michael’s and then followed Emily’s tutorial.  This is how my plate turned out:

So it’s not my best creation ever….I still think it’s sweet though.  I need some more practice so it’s not so wiggly and wobbly.
I created the file to share in case you want to give it a try.  I also made a printable version if you don’t feel like going through all the steps to make the plate.

Download a black and white single “Just Because” file.

I made a new treat to put on the plate (recipe to be shared soon ;) and wrapped it in cellophane and a ribbon.  Here’s how the printable option turned out:

    Hi. You are inspiring. Because of what you are doing, I am holding a Random Act of Kindness Carwash with the teenagers of our small town. No funds will be accepted and in return we will give one of your “cards” that let them know they are a recipient of a RAOK and to encourage them to Pay it Forward. THANK YOU for being you!!

    What a great idea and so easy to do! I started a monthly Drop Everything and Encourage Day. I found it so easy to intend to contact others and encourage them but I’d get caught up in life and forget!

    I have been doing one RAK a week…paying for someone’s meal in a drive-thru, leaving a Starbuck’s gift card inside a handwritten card on a friends doorstep, giving samples to my customers in fun little gift bags, etc…it’s just nice to make someone smile.

    I actually really like the wiggly-ness of your handwriting on the plate! :-)

(Like Mickey!) I started 30days several years ago as my idea file. After 9 years and thousands of ideas, I realize I’ll never be able to check them all off my list.
