To make these simple Silver Ribbon Wedding Reception ribbon placemats you will need:

Silver ribbon (at least 2 inches wide, go for 2 patterns)

Scissors

Ruler or tape measure

No Sew or Sewing Machine

Masking Tape

The first step to making this simple Silver Ribbon placemat for your Wedding Reception is to cut your ribbon. The silver color will compliment almost any color scheme you choose for your wedding. You can make your placemat any size that you want, but I like to make mine at least 12 inches deep and 18 inches wide. This way you can see some of the hard work you put into the craft even when your plate is sitting on it.

By the way, my silver ribbon is 2 inches wide. This is really the best size for this wedding reception craft project, but you can always experiment with any size you want!

Now, if you are using my measurements, then cut 8 pieces of silver ribbon to 14 inches long. Now, cut 6 pieces of silver ribbon to 20 inches long.

Now, I like to go ahead and lay out the horizontal piece on a flat work surface I do not mind tapering to. Lay all of your 6 pieces that are 20 inches long out like a rectangle. They should all match up on the ends and just touch each other.

Now, tape the ends down on each side. Only tape in one inch form the ends. If you go any farther than you will be taping on the surface of your Silver ribbon placemat.
