DIY placemats for your kitchen

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.

NOTE: The custom stencils shown here are not longer available. HOWEVER, I have found other beautiful stencils that would work just as well on these diy placemats. See down below.

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

There are plenty more Stencil projects where this came from.
