Last summer when I was surfing some craft blogs I found this one with a table cloth made out of bandana's. I thought it would be perfect for Becky and Ralph's picnic table (Dave made them the table 9 years ago for their birthdays.) So the boys helped me pick out some colors and I sewed it together.
That's it, no hemming and not cutting! Just sew the squares together. Try to buy the same brand because they do vary in size a little.

I know I've seen some table cloth weights at TJ Maxx but who knew if they still had some and I didn't have time to go, so the boys and I made some. The boys helped me paint some rocks and Dave and I put wire and beads around them finishing them off with a clip to attach to the table cloth. Now the table cloth won't blow away.
This year Dave made his parents a smaller picnic table for their grandchildren to sit at...
Isn't it awesome? Dave did a great job!!!
Happy 60th birthday to Ralph and Becky!!!! My favorite in-laws!!!!! We love you lots!!!!!
What great ideas -- all of them!! How crafty/handy/creative you AND Dave are!! Way to go!
ReplyDeleteI've heard of the bandana tablecloths before - and it looks so cute! Now I'm going to have to make one too!
