Here's a cute way to personalize your next dinner.
Make photo placecards.
Make photo placecards.
I bought these lucite frames at Walmart
for 49 cents each.
I used the student wallet size photos.
I needed to copy and print out the rest.
I'm using old photos for everyone.
That's my senior picture on the right.
Since this is for a graduation weekend meals.
I'm using senior high school pictures
for the parents and grandparents.
I scanned the old photos into my computer.
I'm using my laptop, a MacBook Pro.

I added the photos to my iPhoto library.

I can then edit the photo.
I can then edit the photo.
Enhance the image, and change the size.
Change the print size to 2x3.
This is a single,
but it's easier to do multiple photos at once.
I put all my newly copied photos into a new file.
I labeled the file Head Shots.
That way I can pull up that file and
get all the pictures in one place.
Here is my Head Shots file.
I then chose the photos to print by clicking on them
while holding the shift or command key down.
This will come up and then I hit print.
I get them all one one page.
Here they are in 3x5.
Cut to size and insert into the frame. Use one at every place setting.
(tip: print out two pictures. One for the back of the frame too)

Choose a theme for your photos.
If it's for a graduation, use everyone's senior picture.
If it's for a wedding or shower, use old bridal portraits.
If it's a baby shower, use baby pictures.
You could even have guests guess who's baby picture it is.
Lots of fun possibilities!
Custom MAY'd placecards!
Enjoy!
