Here is a quick and easy way to dress up some place mats. With just a little paint and some stencils, you can make this cute starfish place mat, perfect for a summer beach party!
Start with a plain place mat (mine was made of bamboo).
Tape off and paint the stripes.
After the stripes are dry, remove the tape and add the vinyl stencil. Then, paint the starfish.
When the paint is dry, remove the vinyl and you have a fun, beachy place mat.
Want to make your own? You can purchase the cut file I used to make this project below.
