DIY Thanksgiving Place Cards BY GRACE DOWNEY PHOTOS BY GIGGLE MAGAZINE
Thanksgiving is coming up and you know what that means... all the family is in town. You need to keep Uncle John away from Aunt Lisa (because they are still in a fight from summer vacation), and your two sons can't sit next to each other or else the mashed potatoes will start flying. You worked like a horse in the kitchen so that everyone could have a happy meal and give thanks for all their blessings. So, how do you keep the family chaos under control?! Pull out your fine dishes and make some quick, easy and, even more importantly, super cute place cards so you can decide who sits where. These place cards will transform your table and your dinner conversation!
