I spotted this idea for a simple Thanksgiving place setting and immediately knew it was what I was looking for. It is such a sweet concept; just a bit of burlap (which I had plenty of in my stash of fabric and ribbon) and a fresh sprig of rosemary. It's very adaptable to other holiday occasions too. Wouldn't it look just as lovely with a branch of holly at Christmastime?
My table is not set, quite yet. This was a trial run, but when my daughter arrives home for the holiday, this will be the perfect job for her. She can cut the lengths of burlap, wrap the silverware and then insert the rosemary right before our guests arrive, so it stays fresh and green. The countdown begins for those of us hosting, but it is a simple idea like this one, that will help move things along with ease.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Just might be a Vicki created Thansgiving . . . many thanks . . .
Now if only we can celebrate a win . . . it will be a wonderful thing!
Keep it simple!! Especially if it looks like this! And it would work perfect for Christmas with a piece of holly instead of rosemary.
