Recently I found an entire ribbon plate collection at Michaels in the 'ceramics to paint' section. They have all sizes from large to even coaster sizes and usually come 2 to a box. The larger ones are $12.99 for 2, but with a coupon even cheaper, of course. Do you have a Michael's near you? I bought the coaster size and added ribbon to match each of my girls rooms, then make a hanger out of ribbon. Both are hanging in their rooms and I write a new scripture on them each week. My 7 year old LOVES this (O is a little too young to appreciate it), but E looks for the scripture every Monday morning. Sometimes, she'll request which ones she wants on there.
Michael's usually has a 40% off coupon in the flyer in the Sunday paper. I haven't been on the lookout for them in awhile, but I might be now!
Thanks, Deidre.

i have one of these! your posts have inspired me to get it out...it has been in the cabinet a while!
This is good to know! I was thinking that I wanted to get one for a gift (for someone else, not myself...although that isn't a bad idea).
Does the ever-so-cool handwriting come with the plate? B/c I can get the plate and I can get the ribbon, but outsourcing the printing might be a problem.
oh! what a great tip! i can't wait to slip over there and see what I can find!
I was just at ding dang Michael's YESTERDAY!!! That's okay..I would've spent money on that when I didn't need to BUT my birthday is next Tuesday so I'ma thinkin' I wanna one!!! ;)
Have I mentioned how much I LOVE your handwriting?! (only a million times, i think) :) If I had that handwriting I'd never computer journal anything!! Can I send you my "stuff" to be journaled and you can write it for me???
I love Deidre's idea!! although, I'm pretty sure I'm not together enough to have a new scripture every week!!
That plate is so cute. Love it!
Thank you for letting us know this. I love your friend's idea. I might just have to steal it:) Hi Ho, Hi Ho it's off to Michael's I go.
I like your handwriting (:
You're welcome. These plates have been a huge hit. I bought several a few weeks ago. I decorate them with ribbon, write a scripture on them and give one away each week at bible study with a ticket drawing. They make great gifts.
I have this plate and love it. I like your handwriting also!
Oh, I'm thrilled to know Michael's has these! I looked on Ebay and found the plate, but it was a little more than I wanted to pay, so this is a great alternative.
