Ingredients

• 9 Paper plates
• Pink, green, and black craft paint
• Foam paint brushes
• Clear packing tape
• Doubled sided tape
• Scissors
• Pink and green yardstick
• Black pen

Directions

• Youll want to lie a piece of newspaper down before you start.
• Place your paper plate front side down. Then you can start painting the center of your plate pink and the outside edges green, then let dry.
• After your plate is dry, dip your pinky finger into your black paint, and dab it onto the pink center of your plate, then let dry.
• While drying, you can cut out a couple large green paper squares and a couple pink paper squares about a ½ smaller then the green.
• Use your double sided tape (or glue would work) and tape your pink piece onto your green piece. Write you letter or thank you note on your watermelon stationary.
• Now you can fold your watermelon plate in half, fold your letter, and place it inside.
• Use you packing tape to seal you plate. Now you will want to write your to and from addresses on the plate or address labels.
• Add a stamp or two depending on the weight and off to the post office it should go.
