DIY Football Placemats – A Tutorial

The big game is coming up and my husband is already talking about it. My girls are really not interested in the subject so I came up with these DIY football placemats for them to make and in a way, encourage them to learn all about the game and how it is played.

Believe it or not, these placemats are SUPER EASY to make. Perfect for kids 5 and older who can use scissors. And best of all? They cost pennies on the dollar. Use it to display your delicious food and apps in front of the TV, because I am sure that nobody will want to sit on the living room table while the game is on.

To start making your DIY Football Placemats you will need:

  • Felt Fabric in green and orange
  • Football Shaped cardboard cutouts (I used an eye sticker and just cut out the shape)
  • Toothpicks
  • Fabric Glue stick
  • White fabric paint
  • Marker

These easy DIY Football Placemats can be easily made by kids and is perfect for parties. It takes few materials to put it together and cost just pennies.

The cutouts are 3 inches and 1.5 inches respectively. I will use the toothpicks and the little cutouts to use it on the food. This is totally optional but it will make picking up the food super easy. See?

Ready to start crafting?

Start by tracing the cutouts on the orange felt using the marker. Cardboard makes it easier to get the right shape. I use 4 big ones on each mat but you can certainly make a few more.

Next, use scissors to cut out the shapes:

Then, we use the craft glue stick to stick the cutouts on each corner of the green felt mat. You can place them in any direction you would like.  I like to move them around before gluing them just to see how they will look.

Now comes the fun part: using the fabric paint. Make the lines into the shape of a football. That was my daughter’s specialty.

Let the paint dry for a minimum of 4 hours.
