First clean off your plates of any glitter, dust, residue or any sort. Then cut paper to size leaving a a few inches around the rim of the plate. Remember this project will wrinkle your paper and you will need some wiggle room to work with.

Apply modge podge to charger and place paper on it smoothing it out as you are adhering it to the charger. Note: You can use the *piece of cardboard or your hand to smooth it out.

When smoothing out the paper start in the center and work your way out. Remember to smooth out the inner crevice of the plate. I could NOT find a way to eliminate all the wrinkles so. However if you have air bubbles you can pop them with a needle and smooth the paper out. . This technique worked on some of the wrinkles. I would wait a couple of minutes and let the paper settle before popping and flattening out the air bubbles or else you risk the chances of tearing your paper.

Once the bottom layer of modge podge dried, I used my exacto knife and cut off the remaining paper. To finish off the plate I applied modge podge on the top of the floral paper and on the rim of the plate to make sure the edges were secured and glued down all the way.
