"Hi! I'm Karen for Expert Village. Now we're going to put a little gold spray paint on the back. It'll give it a little bit of a shine and a glitter to it. You want to make sure that you have put plastic down or do this outside. Make sure in a well ventilated area because spray paint is a little bit toxic. We're just using a regular spray paint. Nothing special. Shake that up good. We're just going to spray it in little dots. You're not going to do it an even coating it solid. Just a little bit. It just a very little bit of sparkle. Not solid. Just a little variegated. Little spots and blotchy. It just gives it that little touch of elegance. You need to let that dry completely before you use the plate. Okay, the spray paint is dry. Now you can see it's a very nice decorated. It's a little bit translucent. In the back we have a little bit of shine and glitter. This is a very nice gift. "
