Christmas Apple Place "cards" - Arts, Crafts and DIY

A quick and easy decoration that looks really effective on the christmas table

Material

1 Green apple per person ( make sure they have stems in tact)
1 piece of string per apple
1 sheet of thin card or thick brown paper

Method

Cut leaf shapes out of the card and make a hole in the 'stem'
Neatly write each guests name on each of the 'Leaves" ( or get your friend with the really neat handwriting to do it for you )
Thread a piece of string through the hole and tie to the stem of the apple

Notes

I used green apples last year and went with that theme for the table. But pears or red apples would also work and look effective .
It's an project the children could get involved in too :-)

Want other brilliant projects sent to you?

Use as name placements at the table then eat the apple after….if there’s any room after the meal

Very cute and healthy. I feel a chocolate would go down just as easily too hehe but an apple is clearly the better choice

Love the leaf shapes for the names. Simple yet affective.
