Here is a way to embellish a table for a meal in the garden by making placemats and a candle holder with magazine pages
Cut the magazine pages into strips 4.5 cm wide. Fold them in three lengthwise to stiffen them
For the placemats, weave the strips of paper until you get the desired size. For the finishes, glue strips of paper along the four sides
For each tealight holder, cut circles the size of the bottom of the glasses in the brick. You need two circles per tealight holder
Glue strips of paper radially between two circles, reflective part outwards
Fold the strips of paper around the glass and braid them. To avoid breaking the glasses, they can be replaced by a cardboard tube during the weaving. For finishing, glue a strip of paper along the top edge Put a candle in the glasses
with the same technique it is also possible to make napkin rings
Set the table
