Six DIY Thanksgiving Place Cards to Make Your Table Shine

Are you hosting Thanksgiving dinner this year? If so, I’m sure you have a to-do list a mile long, but why not add just one more thing to make your table as inviting as can be?

We’ve compiled a list of six beautiful and adorable place cards to help your guests know right where to sit when it’s Turkey Time.

The best part is that the kids can help make them!
