DIY Father Christmas and Reindeer Treat Plate Tutorial

I have made some plates to put into Sophie's Christmas Eve box. One is for Father Christmas and the other one is for the reindeer. I can't wait to check if the food has gone on Christmas morning!

What you need:
Porcelain pens
An old kitchen tile/plate to practise on
A plate to decorate
Baby wipes in case you make a mistake!

What to do:
1.       Wash the plate so that it is free from dust and grease.
2.       Decorate the plate.
3.       Leave the plate to dry for 15 minutes.
4.       Heat the plate in the oven for 25 minutes at 160C
5.       Allow the plate to cool in the oven.




If you can't find porcelain pens, I believe you can also use Sharpie pens in a similar way. 

I hope you are convinced to have a go at making your own!
