This is the time of year when I always start to think about the holidays. Where are we celebrating? Who’s bringing what? And anything else that goes into getting the whole family together.
Well, this year we’re celebrating at my place. And I want to make sure my home is the perfect setting for this years family meal.
The Table Placement Set is perfect for impressing your dinner guests with your taste in holiday decor. The set includes a crocheted placemat and coaster setting. The patterns are delicate and lacy, and easy to create too!
This set is made by alternating double, single and treble crochet stitches in a beautiful blue hue. But you can make these stylish settings in whatever color suits your decor. The 100% cotton yarn the pattern calls for comes in various shades. So, you’re sure to find something you like.
And if you’re not hosting the family this season, you can bring an original gift for the host.
Show up to your family gathering with placemats and coaster settings for everyone, and really impress the family!
