We also had a fun waffle night and did a little taste-test from our local Uncle Bob’s Butter Country family business. They have the yummiest syrups — original buttermilk, creamy maple, white raspberry, cinnamon bun, coconut cream. You can click on the link above to see where you can buy their syrups

Today I am sharing :

Holiday Wood Branch Place Card Holder PLUS Faux Wood Printable Cards!!

It snowed here a couple days ago. The snow was so heavy that it broke a huge branch on my neighbor’s tree. I drove past the cut up branches and thought maybe I could use them to make some rustic place holders. So I stuck a big branch in the back of my car and took it home to my garage — to dry out overnight.

Here’s what I did to make the place holders:

1. I cut the branch into 2-3 inch high pieces of wood.

2. Then I took a hack saw and cut a shallow groove in the top of each of the circles.

3. I made a faux wood printable. And then I typed in the names of the people that will be at our Thanksgiving dinner.

4. I printed them out and cut each square out.

5. Then I glittered the place cards with Martha Stewart’s — Smoky Quartz glitter.

6. The last thing I did was inserted the name tag into the wood place card holder.

You can print out the Faux Wood Printable Place Cards on cardstock and use them alone or add some glitz with glitter!

The file is a Microsoft Word file — so you can customize the names and font if you want.

Here is the Faux Place Card file that’s customizable.
{note — this is a big Microsoft Word (.docx) file, it might take a few minutes to download}

And here’s a PDF version if you want to hand-write the names — Faux Wood Place Cards PDF…

Have a Great Day!!
