How to Turn Trinket Dishes into Ornaments
What an easy method to turn vintage trinket dishes into ornaments for Christmas, right?
The best part is you can do this with any pretty plate you want. If you choose to make ornaments out of larger plates like bread and butter size or bigger get Flatirons discs in a bigger diameter. Looking for other unique Christmas ornament ideas made out of vintage pretties? Check out this post!
I hope you all have fun with these DIY ornaments and feel inspired to create your own! If you want to replicate this DIY with Jasperware, I will be offering several trinket dishes for sale in a special Christmas ornament sale on Tuesday November 24th on my Instagram.
Merry Christmas Lovelies!

In over 250 years Wedgwood has never made a single “trinket dish”, You are decorating your tree with ashtrays and Bridge nut dishes.
Davina, You are absolutely right! “How to turn ashtrays and Bridge nut dishes into ornaments” is a bit unwieldy as a title though, don’t you think?
I deliberately chose to use the term trinket dishes because very few of us smoke or play bridge like was once popular, and these little dishes get used more often than not as catchalls for small things. I also believe the DIY tutorial is applicable to all small dishes aka trinket dishes not just Wedgwood Jasperware. You could take any plate that caught your fancy and turn it into an ornament with this method.
Thank you so much for you well meant comment. I’m sure it was intended as kind educational advice although your phrasing lacks serious civility!
I very much agree, Katherine. Such an unnecessarily rude comment on such a lovely, well constructed blog post. I love your idea and immediately printed for next year’s decor! I’m a huge fan and cannot wait to see what you come up with next! Much love and kisses! ?
Hi Madeleine! Thanks for the support. I truly appreciate. Hope you enjoy the creating this DIY next year. XOXO – K
