Hi friends,
I promise you've had a dainty weekend. As I told yous on Friday's post I was going to last busy alongside approximately pigment / stained projects as well as that's just what I did. Some of those projects are going to my son's bedroom, they're non quite ready. I was icon the ceiling, walls as well as doing approximately cleaning, kinda dull only totally necessary.
Well, all those projects weren't tally for a post yet, so, I tried to set together something much prettier.
Remember the white leafage placemats a showed yous during my Fall Home Tour?
I actually similar them, it's similar having 2 sets of placemats. Yeah, that's right. Two sets inwards one.
One that's white as well as the other manifestly wood!
I made these placemats finally year- Fall went past times as well as thus fast I didn't lead keep fourth dimension to lead keep proper pictures earlier I had to shop them.
This twelvemonth I'm actually enjoying them, these are the materials as well as tools you'll demand to create this super slowly project:
- Felt placemat
- ¼" Plywood board
- Jig saw (I used my BladeRunner)
- Sander
- Stain / pigment ( I used Thompson's Waterseal stain - Traditional Brown)
- Matte complete spray Polyurethane
Trace the leafage designing from the felt placemat onto the plywood as well as cutting it out alongside a jig saw. I used my Rockwell BladeRunner, which makes the chore of cutting out shapes super easy. Since The boards are solely ¼" thick, I package them past times two, it goes fifty-fifty faster.
Sand those edges as well as pigment or stain equally yous like.
I gave them approximately other lite sanding later the paint/stain dried for a to a greater extent than rustic look.
The terminal pace is to plow over them 2 coats of matte complete polyurethane to protect them.
This fourth dimension I had lots of fun setting the tabular array alongside approximately vibrant colors.
Blue as well as orangish is such a striking combination!
Pumpkins are a must on a autumn table.
Some orangish berries from a neighborhood shrub were the perfect embellishment to the blueish lantern centerpiece.
Unlike felt placemats, these wooden ones are sturdy as well as and thus slowly to build clean up.
I know they're going to last a staple on my Fall tables for a long time.
Hmm I'm thinking of using this same setting for Thanksgiving. If solely I could detect the orangish berries past times the terminate of November. :/
We'll see, we'll see.
