Day 18: Leaf Place Markers

Published by

November 13, 2012

Day 18: Today…. leaf place markers! This will be perfect for your upcoming Thanksgiving dinner. It’s a very simple table marker DIY.

What you need: leaves, a permanent marker, and a bit of string. If you’re going to use “fresh” leaves, create these place markers the day of your dinner. If you’re afraid you wont have any fall leaves by Thanksgiving time, press a few leaves in between some books. That way, they’ll be all ready to mark your plates for Thanksgiving dinner.

Write your names on a leaf, tie a grouping of leaves together, and mark your table place spots.

Enjoy (and enjoy your dinner)!
