Do you have a special plate for putting out milk and cookies/mince pie for Santa?
Where did you get it from?

If you made it, can you tell me how please?
Even better if you’re happy to share a pic
thank you

We have one that my eldest made as a toddler, but I’ve tried to keep it so safe that some years I forget to get it out!! 🤦‍♀️
We made it at a pottery painting shop, with a foot print turned into a reindeer- if you look on Pinterest there are loads of alternative ideas for this using hand/ foot prints.
Think it just says the year one but obvs you could personalise in any way you wanted to

The years I forget to get it out we tend to just use a generic Christmas plate!

We had a plate that the kids and I made at a local 'paint your own pottery' place. It had their handprints on, and then cookies for Santa written at the top. There are lots of kits on amazon if you don't have one of the physical pottery cafes near you!

I have Santa plates but not to put anything out
I got them in Debenhams before it closed.
TK Maxx also do very good seasonal dishes and plated

I might be overthinking but I want the plate to last, and I only have one DC, but if I put their foot print or name on it it would be ‘their’ plate and I’d have to do a new one if I had another dc wouldn’t I?

I did mine really cheaply. I bought a plain white plate from a supermarket and a pack of ceramic markers from Hobbycraft. I copied a design I found on Pinterest.

I did the same when my second child was born so they have one each.

Give a go OP, they are easy to do (I'm not a crafty person at all!)

Here's one of the plates I did, it's not brilliant but makes me smile every Christmas.
