Easy Thanksgiving Place Setting Ideas

Thanks For Sharing!

Happy Thanksgiving! Most years I am still running around at the last minute trying to pull all the pieces together and get all the details right. Are you still doing the same? I’m here to tell you that you don’t have to go out and buy brand new place cards and expensive napkin rings, you can often make some very beautiful pieces using things from around your house and yard!

I put together a few unique ideas for easy fall napkin holders that can easily be tweaked for Christmas too or every day use as well!

Easy Thanksgiving Place Setting IdeasEasy Thanksgiving Place Setting Ideas - so many great fall table settings you can make using things from nature or around the house

1. Modern Geometric

For a modern look, go with all black and white. Cut a 2″ piece of TP roll, wrap it in one color Washi Tape, and cut a second solid color and turn it into a cool geometric tag.

2. All About Nature

For this next one, you just need to head to your back yard! Grab a few brightly colored leaves that just dropped, use a metallic marker and some string.

Gather about three leaves together, write on one of them with a marker and then tie them onto the napkin for a beautiful arrangement that adds a bright pop of color to your plate!

3) Easy Paper Napkins Rings

Have patterned paper laying around? Tape, scissors, paper and a few optional tags is all you need. Cut a 1 1/2″ piece of paper loop it around and then tie a tag onto it. This paper and tags are from the Jen Hadfield line!
