I saw this idea for using small sprigs of fir as a place setting a while back on a “natural” wedding site and thought I could do put my own spin on it for Christmas.
All I have done is small punch a tag out of Kraft card, used a white gel pen for the writing, added a silver star and then attached the completed tag to a sprig of fir with some brown textured string.
And as I worked with the fir the smell was divine.
I am so pleased with the simplicity and overall result that I am now wondering if I could possibly use the idea as a substitute for a Christmas Card next year (always thinking ahead) …… so after my entertaining …., I am having a bijoux soiree, I shall put mine aside and see how long it lasts without shedding and stays “fresh”.
So creative - and unusual! I like it!
ReplyDeleteMay try it with holly when my family comes over Christmas, it doesn't matter if it pricks them lol.....no fir tree available!
ReplyDeleteHi Helen. What a lovely idea. Could be used in lots of ways. The red plates look great on your bargain table cloths :) I hope the meal goes well, Take care.
