Place cards for Christmas are super helpful when many people come to your home. They can also look elegant and lovely, and they eliminate the “where should I sit?” question invitees ask all the time. They even add to the table decor when matched with the tablecloth (affiliate) and plates.

This one is pretty simple to make. I already had some of the supplies from other projects.

Usually used for more formal larger events, place cards had the attendee's name and their table number on them. People use them for weddings and larger events. It has been adapted to home party use.

Supplies needed to make this Christmas place cards

How much did these items cost to make?

Well, the only thing I bought was the wreaths, which were 15 for $5.00. The gems and other things were from other DIY projects.

How long did it take to make the Christmas Place Cards project?

It took about 3 hours, including 2 hours of dry time. It will be longer if you have more than eight place cards to make.

Now, let me show you how I made these cute place cards for our holiday table.

How to make these adorable Christmas Place Cards?

Decorate the wreath with red 7 dots. Leave enough space for the gems. Add the dots to all of them the same way. Let dry.

Add Dots with red fabric paint

Now, it is time to add the gems. Add the gems to the opening from every other red dot. Let dry completely.

On the Cricut Machine (affiliate) and app, I wrote the name in less than 2 inches wide. I used an Arial font so that it would cut more easily and be easier to read when displayed on the plate.

Use the Cricut Cutter and remove the excess vinyl

After the cutter is finished, remove the excess vinyl and weed out the letters.

Remove the excess vinyl pieces

Using the transfer vinyl, press the names down and transfer them to the top of the wreath where the bow sharp is. Press down firmly.

transfer the vinyl to the felt

Add the transfer paper and name to the top part of the wreath and press firmly. Set aside and do the next one.

Add the vinyl name to the felt. Press firmly.

Continue doing all the attendees' names for the party.

The Big Reveal of These Cut Christmas Place Cards:

Here’s the big reveal. I used a white plate to allow the name card to pop. And the red in the wreath also pops and matches the linens.

How to Make Cute Christmas Place Cards on a Table

What are some things you should know when doing this project?

Clear glue is best when adding gems.

The two-inch width for the name was primarily because I had that much space left at the top of the wreath. If you find larger or smaller wreaths, you must adjust this width.

Now it is your turn.
