Very nice idea. If a person cannot make buttonholes, she could maybe use ribbons securely sewn on both pieces at the open end and tie them into pretty bows with the wooden spoon tied in with the bows. And they can always be washed which is a plus. Thanks, Lee
I went to Garden Ridge and found a bunch of cute placemats on Clearance after the holidays and had this idea in mind... I bought a few dozen of them and I have to say they are so easy to make. I plan on buying some of those foil pans and inserting them for "demonstration" when I give them as gifts. Paid about 20 cents per placemat and $1 for a bag of wooden spoons at the dollar store. Then I had ribbons, etc... Thanks so much again for a cute and inexpensive idea! Here's a picture of one of the ones I have already made...

Madeline,
Would you mind sharing where you brought the place mats in the picture! I love this! What a wonderful idea. Lucindap1 AT aol.com
Very nice! I am going to give it a try . you are right they would make nice gifts. I am not sure if I can make button holes though. I am kinda trying to teach myself to sew. Love your idea.

what a great idea. I think I will make a few of these for last minute gifts...and one for myself...these can also be used at home to keep your casseroles, etc. warm until ready to serve...thanks for sharing..
Thanks for sharing that, it is so cute, clever, easy and inexpensive. Just what you said. Gosh I love this place!
