Creating a gorgeous table setting for your guests is actually much easier than it looks! As we mentioned in our feature last week on stunning centerpiece ideas, Thanksgiving is all about spending time around the dinner table so including a few beautiful {and easy!} decorating ideas is key. Today we are over on Pottery Barn Kids Blog sharing two more DIY projects that are simple to re-create and work perfectly with the adults’ and kids’ tables!
Whenever we’re planning a table design for a party or holiday, we always love to bring a little personalization to the table to make our guests feel special and welcome. You can easily do this by creating unique place cards. Check more details on how to make these easy DIY metallic leaf place cards HERE!
For the kid’s table, we created a DIY “thankful” placemat that each little party guest could interact with. Natural kraft paper works great for a rustic celebration, but you can use any colored paper or card stock that you like. Using the same white pen as our place cards, write a simple “Thankful For” title and blank list along the right side of the sheet. These make a great pre-dinner activity to do with your kiddos and you can talk about all the things they are thankful for — from family and food to toys or pets!
We hope you loved these two simple DIY ideas! Check back again next week because we will be sharing an amazing and unexpected recipe that will definitely become a new favorite on your Thanksgiving dinner menu!
