fun and clever popmat placemats

oh how i love these popmats — placemats with pop up placecards built right into the clever design! simply pop and fold the cut out up to designate where people will be seated – so easy! they’re made of heavyweight paper in a lovely cream color and are 13″ x 17″. choose from a birdcage with chair, fencepost mailbox or leafy little tree.
available in sets of ten for $25 at charles and marie, but take heed – this is the daily special and will not be on sale for too much longer. hop to it if you really want ’em!

hi kelly,
it’s not too late – i won’t tell if you decide to go for it. 🙂

nice to see you!

Wow! This is such a fun idea. Even if you haven’t thought of it first, you could still design and make your own in the theme of your dinner. Great art project for kids too. Yep, now I want to make them. You find the funnest stuff, Gigi.

hi bri,
i completely agree with you – you could go to the art store and buy some fun paper and exacto something complimentary to the meal. ooh! that IS a good idea!!
