Placemats


I was thinking about foods that stain the other day, and how they can ruin your table/ counter/ dress/ pants.. and I was thinking about making a set of placemats. So, I got this idea to make a set where each placemat was dedicated to a different stain. Each mat holds a business card sized marker in the lower left corner, naming the source of the stain, as well as some foods that stain-creator is currently found with, as well as an embroidered image of the food. The color of the placemat is also the same color of the stain, ie, coffee is brown, blueberries are blue, etc. There are four flavors all together, a blueberry, coffee, mustard, and a pasta sauce.
