Thanksgiving Dinner Place Cards
Turn your kids into mini-Martha Stewarts with this elegant little craft.
Materials:- Autumn-colored cardboard or heavy construction paper
- Glue
- A ruler
- Crayons or markers
- Dried leaves, fallen branches, acorns and other natural outdoor finds
Start your craft by cutting pieces of colored cardboard (2-inch by 3-inch) - one for each dinner guest. Fold them in half and then flatten. In the center of the bottom half of the fold, write each dinner attendee's name using crayons or markers. Unflatten the place card so it stands upright. Next, collect your dried leaves and glue them to the cards however you would like. Surround each card with twigs, acorns, potpourri or craft materials, such as ribbon or feathers.
