Holiday Giving Plate

This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy here.

I came home to the most wonderful surprise today!  One of my very closest friends and neighbor, Maria, left a wonderful treat on my kitchen table – a holiday giving plate filled with the most scrumptious cookies!  Yummy cookies aside – the plate is the most lovely thing ever!

So here is the how it works

1. You bake some delicious cookies or other treats
2. Fill the plate up
3. Write a nice note
4. Surprise your friend with this wonderful treat
5. Tell them to enjoy the treat then pass it on

Here are the issues – First, I ate an awful lot of cookies today.  Second, I don’t want to give the plate away!

Here is how you can make your own Holiday Giving Plate (courtesy of Maria!)

Step One – Purchase a super cute plain white plate, platter or bowl – this was microwave and dishwasher safe – you want something you can bake in the oven (this one is from World Market – click here)

Step Two – Using ceramic paints, write your cute message on the plate

Step Three – Let dry for 24 hours

Step Four – Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes

Step Five – Write a nice little note to put with the treat!
