  1. Cut your burlap to 12.5 x16.5″. Fray the ends and trim as necessary to even up. The final size of the placemat will be around 12×16.
  2. Cut a piece of contact paper 10.5 x 14.5 and place on one side of your burlap. Press firmly to adhere. This helps to keep the placemat flat.
  3. Cut a piece of wired burlap ribbon 16″ in length. Lay the burlap on an angle across one corner of the placemat. Fold both ends under and secure with hot glue. Trim ends if necessary.
  4. Use hot glue to affix a wood leave to the corner of the placemat.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of place settings.
