Coffe Filter Place Settings

IMG_5349

 

After assembling these coffee filter roses a few weeks ago, I was intrigued by just how resilient and forgiving filters can be. I’m always searching for unique ways to set the table. Coffee filters are the perfect means to both hold flatware while directing guests to the appropriate seat.

First, place a piece of parchment paper cute to size in between the filter so your design doesn’t bleed through.

Simply paint the filters with watercolors.

Decorate with each guests’ name. Try to tie in themes, colors and motifs that are appropriate for your event.

Remove the parchment once dry. Place the flatware inside.
