DIY: Thanksgiving Teepee Place Holders

Hosting Thanksgiving at your place this year? These teepee seating cards are a really fun addition to your  Thanksgiving table and autumn decor. You could even fill the insides with treats! Keep reading to see how to make them!

Supplies:

  • Ice cream cones
  • Vanilla frosting
  • Pencil
  • Scissors
  • Pretzal sticks
  • Fabric (in an autumn color)

alt

Trace one edge of your cone onto fabrci and then roll it 180 degrees and trace the other edge, then connect them with a curved line

alt

Cut out a skinny triangle in the middle. Your shape should look something like this with the top trimmed down an inch

alt

Add a line of frosting to the back of the cone. You could use glue, but I figured with kids at your Thanksgiving tabel you might as well make them edible! (After removing the fabric of course)

 

alt

Press one end of the fabric into the frosting and wrap it around to the other side

alt

Press the other side into the frosting as well, evening out the wrinkles.

alt

Cut off the top of the cone until you get to the hole, big enough to fit a pretzal stick in

alt

Break one pretzal in half and insert both broken ends into the hole using a little frosting to hold them in place

alt

The easiest way to make a name tag is to cut a sticky mailing label in half and fold it around the pretzal stick. Fill with treats in a plastic bag if you'd like as well!
