Top Tip
Make sure the paint is completely dry before varnishing.
How to Make
Step 1

Begin by rolling out a piece of clay to approximately 0.5cm thick.
Step 2

Cut out a rectangular shape from clay using plastic modelling tools, then smooth out the edges using your finger or a brush.
Step 3

Turn up the edges of the clay. To help the edges stay in place, you can use smaller sections of foam board or cardboard around the edges.
Step 4

Once dry, paint the clay using white acrylic paint. Next, use the template to sketch the playing cards or draw your own design.
Step 5

Paint the design onto the trinket tray with the words ‘Dad, You’re Ace’ or ‘Ace Dad’.
Step 6

Varnish the trinket tray to give it a shiny finish.
