What to do with bamboo placemats?

Question

I have some really nice bamboo placemats...I don't use placemats on my table, but would like to do something unique with them, but I can't quite put my mind around what it is that I want to do...help?

B. Enne · Answer

Use them as a bulletin board, on shelves, around lamps or vases for a tropical look.

You could also cover shoe boxes with them for chic storage on shelves.

Placemats are nice if you have vinyl ones, they wipe up easy with some alcohol spray. Use them for cushions on hard chairs outside. Tie some good cord string through the bamboo, and tie them so they don't slip off.

Hi Nena,

What came to mind was a scene painted on them and displayed on the wall or table. I really like the idea of a purse covered with the bamboo.

Or make them stand up vertically and place around a battery operated candle.

You could put them on a hard surface, attach photos and souvenirs from beach trips, to them, and hang them on the wall.

Cover a table or Box or stick on board and maybe frame up. Add art work or Decoupage a Bird? Roll around a tin or Jar to become container or Vase?
