Hosting friendsgiving just got a little more fun! Create place card holders featuring the best photos of you and your friends. These were created by Erin at www.francoisetmoi.com.

  1. Cut the 1"x1" wood to the length needed to hold your photos and cut a slit into each block for a place to hold the photos.
  2. Lightly sand the blocks until the surface is smooth. Wipe away any sanding residue with a tack cloth.
  3. Using painter's tape, mark off areas on the block to create unique designs.
  4. Apply Rust-Oleum 2X Ultra Cover spray paint in several light coats, following the directions on the can.
  5. Remove the painter's tape and let the paint dry for 1 hour.
  6. To paint the opposite side of the wood block, apply painter's tape to the painted side and apply spray paint.
  7. Remove the painter's tape again and let the paint dry for 1 hour before handling.
  8. Place a photo into each place card holder and add to place settings around your table.
