Tis the season for hosting parties and get togethers. Today I have a simple decor idea that will make your table settings pop. And, the fun part is, they require no sewing!!
I created these with a fall/harvest theme but they could easily be adapted for Christmas or winter or even new Year's or any celebration through the year!
I gathered my supplies which included burlap, silk leaves, various ribbons, buttons and of course, Helmar's 450 and Helmar's Fabric Glue.
I began with a strip of burlap roughly 4 inches by 14 inches. To make the pocket, fold the bottom up about 3 1/2 inches. I creased the bottom fold a few times and then ran a bead of Helmar Fabric Glue along each side edge. I love this glue because it dries clear, has a flexible bond and grabs quickly. Hold that pocket for a few seconds until it sets.
Take your embellishments and create a cluster. I used a variety of leaves, a piece of flannel, a bow and finished with a button. To be honest, I just grabbed the Fabric Glue instead of the 450 to create the cluster which worked just as well. I ended up not using the 450.
Here is a close up of my cluster.
And here is the finished set of four
If you wanted you could personalize these and use them for table settings as well. I think they will look lovely at our Thanksgiving Table.
Thank you for joining me today for this home decor diy! I hope you are inspired to create something similar for your table!
