How to Make Cute Christmas Place Cards - featured image

Place cards for Christmas are super useful when you have a large number of people coming to your home. They also can look elegant and lovely and it eliminates the “where should I sit?” question invitees ask all the time. They even add to the table decor when matched with the table cloth and plates.

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

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.

AD from Boutique Rugs: Take 15% off already discounted prices. Use code PRES15. Valid February 6-25, 2023.


How long did it take to make these 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 and app, I wrote the name in less than 2 inches width. I used an Arial font so that it would cut easier and be easier to read when standing in front of 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

Things you should know when doing this project?

Using clear glue is best when adding the 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.
