How Do You Laminate A Placemat For Valentines Day Crafts?
Making a Valentine’s Day place mat is an easy and fun craft activity that can add the secret ingredient (love) to any meal. Adults and children can make place mats from any flat image or decorative paper using a simple roll of contact paper. Valentine’s Day place mats can be used throughout the year to say “I love you.” Unroll the contact paper to a length of approximately 14 inches and cut in a straight line. Cut a second piece of contact paper and set it aside. Arrange your background image or patterned paper on your tabletop, leaving a 1/4 inch border of contact paper around the edges to ensure a good seal. Begin to arrange your decorations once the background is centered and secured. Letters of the alphabet can be cut from pictures, patterned paper and candy wrappers. Layering pressed flowers can give your place mat a romantic look. Photographs can be cut into heart shapes to show your love. Secure the top layer of contact paper once you are happy with the appearance of your place
