Free Printable - Thanksgiving Placecards


I love candy corn.  I love the colors, I love how they are shaped, and I love how they taste.  They are perfect for eating, but they are also great to use in crafts (like in my Thanksgiving Centerpiece created HERE).

Now I want to share with you another free printable I created and a tutorial on how to make these cute little placecard displays for the Thanksgiving table, also using candy corn!  You will need:

Small Jars (I used these spice jars from Ikea)
Decorative Ribbon
Candy Corn
Free Printable Blank Placecards (Download HERE)
Scissors or Paper Trimmer
Craft Sticks
Hot Glue Gun


Take the lids off of your jars and fill the jars with candy corn and add a decorative ribbon.


Print your free printable labels that you can download HERE onto heavy white cardstock and cut out each label.  Hand write the names onto your placecards or if you want custom text for the labels, you can purchase in my Etsy Shop HERE.  And fold each label in half.



Take a wooden craft stick and use a hot glue gun to glue the craft stick in the middle of the folded label.



Take your finished sticks and place them in your jar filled with candy corn.  Now you have cute placecard displays for your Thanksgiving table.  These displays would also look great using the labels for food/dessert items instead of names to place on a dessert table!


Have fun creating!
