Bamboo Place Mats
It's really fun making something out of nothing and that's what this weeks project is. We redecorated our bedroom and put up some new bamboo blinds. They were a lot longer than what we needed so we cut them to length and had a lot of material left over. With a little imagination we came up with these cool looking place mats. Here's what you'll need:
For the height you'll want to cut it about 4" to 6" longer than your finished mat. This will give you 2" to 3" of working area on the top and bottom. Apply tacky glue and fold over about 1/2" on each side. Hold it in pace with clothes pins until the glue is dry.
Make the coasters the same way. You can add a ribbon to the coasters for a different look. We think these look pretty darn nice and will really make a festive dinner setting. We hope you liked this project. If you build it and your friends ask where you got such a clever idea, please tell them that you got it at RunnerDuck.com.
