I am thinking about having a buffet for our brunch instead of setting all of the tables. Just a few supplies, wooden clothes pins, wooden stars, acrylic paint, hot glue .....
and you have a star clip to hold your stuff together.
I didn't have a fork but I think I could squeeze it in. If I was being really helpful and not going for the look, it would probably be better to clip the napkin to the back. Actually I think I will just fold the napkin in thirds to slip behind the utensils on the front. That way they can make it through the buffet line without having to adjust the clip and napkin then hold the utensils----and it would still be cute.
Perfect for windy outdoor eating!

2008 Parade Grand Champions ---YIPPEE!
posted by cindylouh on July 3rd, 2008 | Uncategorized |
Just a little clue to the theme of our float! I am making these little favors for my breakfast table this year to go with the patriotic pinwheels.
I took about a 3" circle of tissue paper and glued it to the top of a toilet paper roll. Next I printed the Uncle Sam Hat Party Favor download on card-stock. I used a glue stick to attach it to the toilet paper roll. I then filled the tube with goodies and attached a 3" red card-stock circle with a glue gun. I printed the circles on a piece of red card-stock to make it easier for me. You can find what I used for the brim of the hat here. (Make sure you print full size--no scaling, so the downloads fit the toilet paper roll properly.)

Setting our breakfast tables

Before our Fourth of July parade we have a breakfast. I have been working on these paper firecracker party favors
from the July Country Living Magazine.
Mine will be filled with fireworks. They are (so far ---notice I haven't gotten that far) really simple to make.
You can download images from their site, here. I used vintage clip-art from this book.
