About
Hello! My name is Rebecca and I'm so glad you've found your way to The Patterned Paper Plate.
A little about me. I'm 27 and live in New Hampshire with my fabulous husband and my extremely lovable cat. In addition to all of that, I also happen to love baking and crafting. And that is the very crux of this blog: crafting and baking are not just for the professionals! I am living proof of that! I am here to give you ideas, tips, and inspiration on card-making, cake baking, canvas painting and everything in between.
Here are some questions you may not have even wanted to know the answer to, but which I will answer for you anyway!
1. What made you decide to start blogging?
I love to craft/bake and wanted to create an outlet to share that with others so I decided to give blogging a try. I also enjoy writing, but never am able to commit enough to write something very long so I thought I might be able to handle some short, witty blog posts. Don't worry, I know I'm not really that witty.
2. Why call it The Patterned Paper Plate?
Well, this one has a few pieces. I liked the idea of a paper plate, because typically paper plates are associated with the exact opposite of fine dining. That really encapsulates the kind of baking and cooking I do. Paper plates are also an invaluable tool when crafting; they can be used as drying racks, paint palettes, glue gun holders and so much more. I also liked the references to paper and patterns since a lot of the crafting I do involves colorful paper. Also alliteration is fun and catchy so that's why we've got some triple P action going on.
3. Who/what got you into crafting and baking?
My mom! My mother is a crafter as well and I have always been used to us making our own centerpieces for parties and making Christmas ornaments each year for the extended family. At least 2/3 of my craft supplies are hand-me-downs from my mom so you can thank her for my craftiness!
Anyways, thank you so much for taking the time to read a little bit about me. Have a wonderful day!
