Vintage Paper Placemats {Printable}

VintagePlacemat Main Vintage Paper Placemats {Printable}

It seems Pretty Blog readers just can’t get enough of their high teas these days! In honour of this truly wonderful tradition making a comeback into weddings and everyday life I’ve created  a set of 3 vintage-inspired placemats – each a sweet and simple backdrop for your finest cake plates and tea sets.

While I’ve used crisp white paper for my placemats these vintage illustrations will also look great on other soft hues like pale blue, blush and ivory. And if you’re feeling really crafty why not print these in reverse onto transfer paper and iron them onto plain cloth placemats!

Happy Crafting!

    I absolutely love DIY weddings! As a wedding photographer you soon learn to recognise DIY from store bought projects. Just this passed weekend I did photography at a wedding where the bride, her friends and family had done everything. There is a personality to these types of weddings which shows in the photographs afterwards. There is less of a stiffness and a more natural and friendly look which fits in with the bridal couple. The tips you have given are great!

  14. Thanksgiving Traditions for Kids | A Pinch of Joy - November 14, 2011

    [...] Kids love to be a part  of preparations  so let them set the unbreakables on table(s) ahead of time.  The cutlery place mat reminds them which side to put silverware.    Provide washable markers and let kids add their names and decorate.  Use them on a separate kid’s table or under kid plates on the main table to help catch drips. Consider using the fancy swirly one under buffet serving dishes with the name of the dish written on the edge. And dozens of other possibilities.  Older kids can help with ideas or do the printing, too.  You can find the printables at The Pretty Blog. [...]
