PLACEMATS
Thanksgiving
dinner tastes even better when it's served on a cheery,
personalized placemat. These are fun to make and terrific
take-home treats (they're reusable), so write out your guest list
and put the kids to work!
For each mat,
they'll need 2 large (12" x 16") sheets of colored paper
(tan and orange), about a 2' length of 16" clear self-stick
plastic, plus assorted markers, fabric scraps and pieces of
colored paper.
 1.
Cut tan paper in a half-circle about 16" wide and 12"
high, and an orange version an inch smaller all around. Snip edges
to form pointed borders and glue together as shown.
2. Cut turkey
parts and pumpkin from cloth and paper, glue to mat, then decorate
with markers.
3. Sandwich mat
between 2 pieces of plastic, smooth carefully and cut away excess
plastic, leaving an even edge.
