craft: Place Mats

I've been trying to connect with G, so everyday after school I try and have a project. Last week we made Table Setting Place Mats. Sooo cute and easy. We found a formal dinner setting online. This one works great because it gives you lots of options. We used a medium piece of poster board for our base. Use your dishes to make templates. Cut and paste into the proper place and DECORATE! Cover with clear contact paper (At the store it's found with the contact paper you'd put on your shelves, NOT in the craft section). Voila! You've got a place mat that teaches manners!




Today's project comes from Flipflops and Applesauce. Check out these parachuting bears!
