Brown Paper Bag Place Setting

Original, funky and fun these place settings are sure to be a great conversation piece.

Small brown paper bags (I used the 1 lb sacks available at craft stores and cut off 2” from the top of the bag)
Dinner napkins (folded in half)
Paper straw
Cutlery
Twine

 

Directions:

Place the napkin, cutlery and straw in the bag and tie a piece of twine around the bag.

 

Lollipop Décor

Irresistible at any age, fun lollipops always have that special appeal.

 

For the napkins:

Start at one corner of the napkin and roll up.

Fold the napkin in half.

Tie a ribbon around the napkin and stick a lollipop in.

 

For the centerpiece:

Place large lollipops into flower arrangements.

 

Mask Place Setting:

Wrap an inexpensive mask around a folded napkin and stick silverware in.
