It’s so exciting to see our babies grow and start trying different foods, but what a huge mess those tiny people can make! Keeping a placemat at the table that can easily be wiped down is a must. Learn how to make one yourself using maps. You also could use pages from a book or wrapping paper!
Materials Needed:
- Dishwasher-Safe Mod Podge
- Plastic or vinyl placemat
- Foam brush
- Maps
Step One: Begin by putting a layer of Mod Podge on your placemat. In order for your placemat to be waterproof, you must use Dishwasher-Safe Mod Podge.
Step Two: Lay your maps on top of the Mod Podge.
Step Three: Paint another layer of Mod Podge on top of the maps. Let it dry, then add another coat. Add about two or three more layers of Mod Podge, letting it dry between each coat.
