This year for Thanksgiving I wanted to keep my table setting pretty simple. Mason Jars, buffalo check, pinecones, and fall leaves make up this year’s table! In the past I have used my China on Thanksgiving, which is totally still fun and the only time of year that I use it, but I thought it would be a fun change to keep things casual this year. So along with the Mason Jar Lanterns that I showed last week, I made up simple Mason Jar place card holders to keep with the theme!
How to….
I found a font on the computer I liked, I used KG The Fighter, and then typed up everyone’s names that will be at the table. I spaced them out plenty so I would have enough room to cut them out with a 2 inch circle cutter. Then I printed them on cream card stock.
Cut them out, the circle cutter made it so quick and easy!
Then take a hole puncher and punch a hole in the circles for tying the string. I punched it about a half inch down so it would not rip through.
Next I took a wood stain marker to darken the edges and make them look a little more rustic to match my table.
Next, I used Jute string to tie around the mason jar glasses. I tested the length of the string on one of the glasses and then when I had the desired length I quickly cut the rest of the string to match.
This was a quick and inexpensive way to add farmhouse style to my table!
