. . . Paint Chip Utensil Holder . . .

Well, today is the last day of Create It With A Chip Week...sad.  I have loved coming up with ideas on how to use Paint Chips and getting to share some fun ideas with all of you. 

Earlier this week I made Paint Chip Placecards which I think will be so much fun at my next party, but I wanted to expand on the Paint Chip Theme so I made Paint Chip Utensil Holders.  So simple to make with a few free paint chips and washi tape.  It holds a napkin, knife, fork and spoon perfectly and fits great right in the center of a plate.  You can imagine how festive your table will look with all the bright colors of the paint chips!

• Gather up your rectangular Paint Chips, Washi Tape, Utensils and Napkins
•Take 2 paint chips with the backsides together (so they are your inside) and start by tearing a piece of washi tape to fit the length of your paint chip.  Don't go clear to the very top.
• Tape up both sides
• Add tape on the bottom piece extending out over the edges a little then cut those extra pieces off.
 It creates a more seamless effect by doing it this way.

Make as many as you need using the same colors or a variety of colors to brighten up your table.
Fill the holder with a Napkin and your Utensils and put in the center of each plate.

So Cute!
