Cute lil diy

I have been on the look out for cute pink striped place mats. I figured they would be pretty hard to find. So I thought why not make my own? I found these place mats during our shopping trip to Z gallerie and decided to paint the pink stripes on myself. They turned out way cuter than I even thought.
So here's what to do if you want to try it too........

Shannon-
I am sure they have fabric paint but being the lazy/cheap person I am I just used some left over paint from Evelette's table!
I can't believe how well they actually came out!

I will have to give this a try! Unfortunately I won't be able to use pink (hubs is totally against pink) but I will try silver? something wintery...
