Hello Wednesday!
While we are on the Blue Peter vibe, I wanted to show you all our ideas for name places. Well actually, this was Matt’s mum’s genius idea.
So here we go on how to do it!
Step 1: Get a piece of paper for each guest
Step 2: Draw a circle template on each one, placemat size.
Step 3: Cut them out (yes this is tedious I am not going to lie!)
Step 4: Write everyone’s name on each one in felt tip
That’s it!
We then put them on the tables as name places so people knew where to sit, and then we put little jam jars on the tables full of felt tip pens. Inside the menu, we wrote
‘You will notice you have been given a blank paper placemat and several jars of felt tip pens. The rest is up to you!’
All the guest decorated their own placemat, and then afterwards we collected them all up – and stuck them all up at the BBQ we had the next day so everyone could see them. We are going to bind them all together into a book to keep. We thought it was more fun than a guest book!
And before you ask, yes we did get a fairly large amount of rude drawings… boys will be boys eh?
Love
Emma xx
