Italian Gifts of Nature Craftwork: Place Markers


Thinking of making your own place cards for  special party reception tables? That shouldn't be hard to do, but if you can't think of a unique way to mark the places, it can be a bit challenging. Place cards used to be just a simple piece of card stock but now they're often something totally different than that. 
For our last Comenius Meeting welcome dinner it would be nice to mark places with something unique and pretty… so
LET'S WORK!!!!!
































To create the effect of older paper: we brush cardboard with water and coffee. then we let it dry.
When it is ready, we cut it in little rectangular forms.We singe the edges with the lighter.

                                                    








You can use this place marker also to put foto or message......
