DIY placemats for your kitchen

Well this sure was a fun day for me, my Mom and my sister. I told y’all I was making a pretty table this holiday season.

I made these pretty table place cards for us all and this was the start of my wheels turning.

Today, I am sharing how to DIY  place mats for your kitchen.

I started out with 4 inexpensive place mats I found at Walmart. Red and Teal.

Then I bought some pretty linen napkins by the Pioneer Woman. I really do love her goods. They make me smile with the fun color combinations. She is a colorful woman indeed.

I stenciled each place mat with a different stencil.

At the head of the table I purchased two jute place mats to add a little different texture to the holiday table.

Of course, my little Dollar snowman salt and pepper shakers made the scene.

It was really simple to stencil on these place mats. I used acrylic washable craft paint so that I could launder them with no problem.

Colorful, simple, and happy!

I will show you around the holiday kitchen soon. Right now, I am enjoying my Mom and sisters visit so I have not been spending too much time taking photos and blogging.

We have been having a wonderful time  doing crafts together and Facebook lives. I have to say, my Mom is quite the ham:) I wish I was as comfortable as she was in front of the camera. You don’t have to ask her twice!

Here is a little tutorial video on how we did the place mats. Enjoy.

My Mom looked so stinkin’ cute in my apron. She baked a killer apple pie for Thanksgiving.

It was gone pretty quick, sadly. Next year she needs to make two!

Pin it, make it!

We get a little silly in this video..please don’t mind our singing. We are not very good, but we have fun!
