Maple Leaf
Tablecloth
by Kim Garfield
originally from Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, Canada
skill level: easiest
cost: $5-$20
craft time:
30 minutes
white tablecloth, the size of your table
fabric paint,
brown and orange
maple leaf cookie cutter
foil pie plate
paint
markers
Spread out tablecloth, be sure to have a plastic tablecloth or
cardboard underneath it so the paint doesn't stain the table (or do it
outside).
Place brown and orange paint into a foil pie plate.
Dip cookie
cutter into the paint.
Press cookie cutter onto to tablecloth then paint
inside it.
Let dry completely, then iron it.
Take paint markers and allow
everyone to sign a leaf at your thanksgiving meal. That way you have a lot of
memories on that tablecloth for many years to come. I started in 1994 and my
tablecloth still has room for more leaves. Happy Thanksgiving.
