What Should I Personalize These DIY Thanksgiving Decorations With?

These personalized placemats can be made in under 30-minutes. Consider personalizing them with guests or family members names… or even a word that reminds them to be thankful this year.

How To Get Started

Simply place stencils onto the placemat, and paint over them.

It helps if you use the edge or a border, you can see I’m lining mine up with the top of the fringe, that way all of the letters will be side-by-side and not all over the place.

Once finished, set your placemats aside to dry.
