I’ve seen just about everything done with placemats, but I’ve never seen this! Sarah at StepThruCrazy made a pendant lampshade from three vinyl placemats. Wow! She even wrote a tutorial so we could all make one for ourselves. The dollar store is a fabulous resource for placemats, so check for them next time you go. [how to make a hanging placemat pendant lamp]
Project Estimate:
- 3 vinyl placemats, $3
- Hot glue gun & sticks, on hand
- String/strong twing, on hand
Total: $3 and up (add a pendant lamp kit from IKEA for about $3)
p.s. Help me print CROQ zine – pledge $5 and reserve your copy of this craft magazine! We have already raised over $1000.

OOOOH! This is pretty cool. It’s inspiring me to figure out what else I can make from placements. They are such nicely shaped and small pieces of fabric . . . WAITING to be used for a project! :D
