What's in YOUR Pocket?


So....I was downstairs digging around in my fabric bins and came across a project that I've been meaning to take advantage of and never did. (like that's never happened before) I found 6 back pockets from old jeans that I was meaning to use for napkin and silverware holders. You know, like a different twist on a napkin ring.

I think it would be really fun if you had red and white checked placemats. I think they still look cute even without the red and white checks. I think they are fun the way they are and the kids sure get a kick out of them.....but how cool would they be to have sparkly things on them or ribbon or flowers. I can't do that with the boys using them, that wouldn't be "cool"
:-/ .....although it gives me an idea that maybe I could make a set just for us girls when we have tea parties.......we could "girlie" them up a bit......hmmmm???

  1. I LOVE these! I am such a fan of denim and love the idea of repurposing it. Genius!

  2. me too... very clever... great for a take along on a "picnic" ( a thing of the past... you would pack up the food and tableware in a basket and head to a nice grassy quiet spot....) lol
