I'm hosting Christmas at our house for the first time ever. I want to do place cards, something easy, but cute. Any ideas?

I googled Christmas place card ideas for you and here is a list that came up:









Christmas Place Card ideas:


1. Purchase a small artificial poinsettia for each place and write the person's name on one petal with a pen or marker.

2. Cut a Christmas stocking shape from felt or construction paper and write the person's name in white glue. Cover the glue with glitter and let it dry.

3. Bake sugar cookies in Christmasy shapes and write each person's name on the cookie in icing. Wrap each cookie in clear cellophane and tie with a small bow of ribbon or raffia.

4. Write the person's name on an ornament (plastic-apple ornaments or homemade salt-dough ornaments work well) that will become a party favor and can be used on the guest's tree next year.

5. Cut a slit in a shiny red apple and slip in a plain or Christmas-themed place card. You could make the place card from the fronts of last year's Christmas cards.

6. Hot glue a Christmas place card on a pine cone. The pine cone can be painted in festive holidays colors before the card is attached if you wish.

7. Cut out small, white-paper snowflakes and set them on the table above each place setting. (This is a great project to occupy children on holiday from school while you tend to other tasks.)

8. Put two wrapped candy canes nose to nose and trace the heart-shape perimeter on white paper. Write the person's name on the paper and attach the wrapped candy canes with a glue stick or low-temperature melt hot glue.
