I love creating pretty tablescapes so I am totally crushing on these adorable denim placemats made by Sam who blogs at Creatively Sam’s. There’s so much to love about them: there’s a little pocket just right for holding flatware, a handy place to tuck away the napkin and perfectly frayed edges for a nice, casual finish to the edges.
If you have some old jeans lying around that you never wear, purchase a yard of denim and you’ve got all the ingredients you’ll need for these denim placemats.
Sam has written a detailed tutorial sharing how she made these, down to her super easy technique for fraying the edges.
In addition to casual dining inside, these denim placemats would be perfect for a picnic or cookout!
You’ll find the tutorial for these cute denim placemats at Creatively Sam’s here: Denim Placemats for a Casual Table Setting
Pssst: I’m including this project in the No-Sew category because the napkin loop and pocket could possibly be attached with a fabric glue like Fabri-Tac which is super strong.
