Birch Rounds
Vise
Hand Saw

Buy or cut your birch rounds to your size of choice.  I cute mine to be approximately 2-1/2″ in diameter and 1/2″ thick.  You’ll then want to place each round in a vise or clamp to hold it place when you saw.

Placing the birch in a vise to cut a slit with saw for it to be used as a place card holder.Using your handsaw, you’ll be sawing a slit/slice into the birch.  Be careful to keep an eye on how deep your cut is.  It doesn’t need to be big being that it will be holding a piece of paper or cardstock the size of a business card.

Cutting a slit in the birch for it to be used as a place card holder.Once you’ve done that, you’re done!  Now let’s take a look at my table setting.  Here is the birch place card holder with the Give Thanks printable place cards!

You can see that I’ve layered each place setting with a placemat, charger and plates.
I’m a sucker for the neutral color palate too.  These sets are from Target.

    HI Kelly Sure miss getting your blog posts, hope I will again, enjoy your blog so much.
    Love birch place holders. I’ll have to see if Michaels is still carrying birch wood pieces. The place card is so nice for anytime but especially Thanksgiving of course. Thanks so much for providing such nice Thankful place cards. Your table looks so nice. Makes me wish again we had table but no place for one in our house.
    Happy week

      Hi JaneEllen! How bizarre that you’re not getting the e-mails anymore. I added your e-mail to the subscription list, so let me know if you start to receive them again. Are they going to a junk/spam folder?

      Thanks so much for loving on my birch place card holders. I’m glad you liked them, friend. HUGS!

    Fantastic job, as always! I know it is a simple tablescape, but it looks so complete and put together. I love how you designed the card with the faux bois look to coordinate with the birch. Thanks again for inviting me to join in with all of you! Hope you have an amazing holiday season.
