Anyone counting down the days until Thanksgiving… because we already are!!! \u00a0We came out with a printable EDITABLE rustic place card & menu card collection <\/a>last week, and we wanted to show you some easy and clever ways to display the cards on your table setting this season.<\/p>\n

We are loving all natural elements along with accents of gold – it is neutral & rustic, yet sophisticated all in the same! \u00a0To create our rustic theme, all you have to do is send your kids outside to collect the following: \u00a0fallen tree branches, pine cones, acorns & sweet gumball pods…. we will show you the rest! \u00a0We are creating a few place card holders that you can use throughout your home along with the perfect centerpiece.<\/p>\n

Supplies needed:
\nThick tree branch
\nPine Cones
\nAcorns
\nSweet Gumball Pods
\nCoping Saw
\nVise
\nBright Gold Metallic & Satin Champagne Metallic Spray Paint
\nRibbon\/Twine (we get our twine, from The Twinery<\/a>)
\nRustic Thanksgiving Editable Place Card and Menu<\/a><\/p>\n

Log Place Card Holder\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>
\nDirections:
\n1. \u00a0Find a 1″- 2″ thick tree branch.
\n2. Using a coping saw (or any other hand saw), cut branch into 1 1\/2″ pieces – it is best to hold saw in a metal vise, while cutting it.
\n3. Slice each log at the top, centered, 1\/4″ deep from edge to edge.
\n4. Tie groisgrain ribbon around log… and then tie cute twine for an extra touch.<\/p>\n

Rustic Centerpiece<\/strong><\/em>
\nDirections:
\n1. Collect assorted pine cones, acorns, sweet gum pods and small twigs from outside.
\n2. Using the two spray paint colors, spray findings (and keep some to the side, not painted)
\n3. Once dry, arrange on platters with a candle – mixing the painted pieces with natural pieces. \u00a0Mixing painted outdoor elements with the non-painted ones will warm up the centerpiece and keep that rustic feel.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

To display menu cards – you can also show the menu cards in the log place card holders…. or lay them on plates, and add a few gold acorns for accents.<\/p>\n

More Place Card Options<\/strong><\/em>
\n– Add a piece of wheat to your folded place card by punching two tiny holes in the top left corner and slide through
\n– Using a gold painted pine cone, wedge the card in the top of it
\n– Insert a painted sweet gum ball stem in the corner of the place card for another look<\/p>\n

You can mix up your outside elements and display cards multiple ways throughout your table setting!<\/p>\n
