VIDEO: Make place cards for Christmas yourself
This is how Christmas comes to the table
- Self-made place cards for Christmas create a festive atmosphere on the table and show everyone where their place is. This is particularly advantageous for larger companies, such as a company party, and avoids confusion.
- At Christmas, the table decorations should also be designed according to Advent. Of course, this also applies to the place cards you have made yourself. Therefore, you can make them in a Christmas shape, for example as a Christmas tree, snowman or star.
- However, it's best to take a simple outline shape that you can cut out without any problem or great effort.
Make the place cards
- Draw the symbol you have chosen on a piece of sturdy cardboard and then cut it out. This is how your stencil is created. This enables you to design all place cards in the same shape.
- Then lay the template on colored construction paper and carefully outline it with a pencil.
- Repeat this until you have drawn as many outline shapes as there will be guests at the Christmas table.
- Then carefully cut out the individual shapes.
- If there are still pencil marks on the construction paper later, you can remove this with an eraser. Be careful when doing this so that the construction paper is not roughened too much.
