Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spread the prepared cups on it. Place the tray in the oven for 2 to 5 minutes and during this time watch the cups closely so that you don't leave them in for too long. The edges should now slowly become soft and start to curl outwards. Take the mugs out of the oven and let them cool thoroughly. Then you can use hot glue to attach the skewers to the back and decorate the garden with the finished plugs.

Danger: Make sure there is good ventilation throughout the baking time, as plastic gives off fumes that are not particularly healthy. So it's best to open the windows and ask the children to leave the room during this time or at least not to be there for too long.
