It’s that time of the month where I get to partner with a few lovely bloggers and bring you a fun themed blog hop! Over here I’m sharing a Thanksgiving Place Card Idea and if you keep scrolling down you’ll see 10 other Thanksgiving Table Setting Ideas!

These little Tissue Paper Pumpkins are super easy to make and the added natural elements give them a rustic touch (and inexpensive I might add).

You can just leave the pumpkins plain for table décor, or add someone’s name to the leaf and turn them into a place card.

Thanksgiving Place Card Idea-Tissue Paper Pumpking Tutorial via @Tarynatddd

Supplies (to make 1 pumpkin):

– 1″ Styrofoam Ball (you can find these at the dollar store)

– Cream Tissue Paper (also found at the dollar store)

– Wire Thread

– Pencil

-Hot Glue

– Twig

– Dried Leaf

1. Cut the tissue paper into squares.

2. Start by placing the twig (stem) into the Styrofoam.

3. Wrap the tissue paper around the end of a pencil, put a drop of hot glue on the end and then secure it to the Styrofoam ball. Continue until the ball is covered.

4. Using some thin wire, wrap it around your finger (or a pen) to create a spiral and then wrap it around the stem.

5. And lastly, place the leaf in place.

Here are some other brilliant Thanksgiving Table Setting Ideas:

You can catch up on the full process on my stories, I saved a highlight reel under “bathroom Reno” so you can check it out. Today didn’t go quite as planned with a lot of roadblocks but my goodness I can’t believe how much it changed in a weekend!

I love that each of our kids have requested a read I love that each of our kids have requested a reading corner from in their rooms. While they don’t always read here, it’s always nice to walk in and find them relaxing, playing on games or electronics and feeling like they have a space of their own that they helped create! And I must say, I’ve spent some time in this chair while we do homeschool and it’s pretty cozy!
