I picked up some fun turquoise shelf liner recently (for $1.00 a roll)...
and I decided I wanted to see if it would work out for Placemats.
and this diy project... well, it could'nt be more simple. :0)

I opened it up and rolled it out, and used a different placemat for my guide to cut it.

For size reference the roll I used was 12 inches wide, and I cut the placemats at 18 inches long.
(This particular roll of liner will make 3 placemats per roll at that size)
That is it...
Placemats in less than a couple of minutes...

Could also make a table runner, or use it like a doily for a fun pop of color, and could easily
cut them in different shapes as well. I think circles would be fun.
You could even add some decorative elements to them if you wanted. (silk flower in the corner, rhinestones, stencil on a design using some paint, and so on)
I decided to place them in the center of the table for a slightly less pop of color,
and I like how that looks also.

I can think of several uses for this stuff now... :0)
