YOW! Advent Calendar

YOW! Advent calendar – the 7th door

Winter apples with a personal message – I wonder if Snow White would have been able to resist them?

You’ll need: winter-themed stickers, lettering or similar, apples, egg white and icing sugar.

  1. Plot your chosen design, logo or lettering onto any self-adhesive film using the cutting plotter, then weed it.
  2. Stick the plotted stickers onto an apple and dip it in egg white.
  3. Dust the apple with icing sugar.
  4. Leave to dry, then carefully peel off the stickers – and there you have it: a wintery and personalised table decoration! And you can eat it too…
