Summer is just around the corner, which means finally having breakfast in the garden again. But carrying the dishes will always be a shaky business. A tray could help there. That's why you simply design your own tray. We show you how to make your own individual tray.

Start by transferring a mandala onto a tile using graphite paper, then use the Edding Porcelain Brushpen to trace the contours and then paint the mandala with porcelain colours.

Color 3 more tiles and let all tiles dry for at least 4 hours. After drying, place the tiles in a cold oven and bake at 160 degrees Celsius for 90 minutes.

Caution! Let the hot tiles cool down in the oven, otherwise there is a risk of burning.

Next, glue the tile with the mandala with mosaic glue in the middle of the tray.

Now you need protective goggles! Crush the cooled tiles with a hammer and place the broken pieces on the tray.
When you have filled the bottom of the tray with shards, brush the mosaic with mosaic and-Joint Filler wipe away the excess mass with a damp sponge so that the mosaic is clearly visible.

Then let them Joint Filler dry.

Then seal the surface with the mosaic to make it Clear varnish, food safe. Let it Clear varnish dry for 1 to 2 hours.

That's it! Have fun with your self-designed tray
