    I love this idea! I'll give it a go on my tabletop with some vintage stamps. What a fun tribute to brown paper packages!

    How adorable! I absolutely love this! Not only is it a cute way to recycle but it also eliminates the need for place cards.

    I am going to have to give this a try!

    These are so clever! My youngest children made napkin rings from cardboard tubes...wrapped with wide ribbon and tied with a bow. This was YEARS ago and I still have and use them!
    I am going to try your version using old stamps. Thanks for sharing your tips!
