How to Make a Fall Place Setting with Foil Accents

Grab your Cricut machine and let’s get crafting! We’ll cut leaves and add foil to create decorative napkin rings for a pretty place setting. In no time, your Fall table will be beautiful!

This Fall project features the Cricut foil transfer tool. However, you can get a similar look using a glitter gold Cricut pen if you don’t have the foil tool yet. Just switch the setting to draw instead of foil in Cricut Design Space.

Supplies needed:

Cricut Machine and Cricut Design Space

Cricut Foil Transfer tool
Gold foil sheets
Cardstock – I used brown kraft cardstock
Extra paper and twine

Note: If you are going to use foil in this project you need to use either a Cricut Maker or Cricut Explore machine. If you want to use a glitter gold pen, the Cricut Joy will work just fine too. You can see more about using the foil transfer tool here.

Fall Place Setting with a Cricut Machine

Use your Cricut and the foil transfer tool to make this gorgeous fall place setting perfect for Thanksgiving.

Supplies

Cricut Machine and Cricut Design Space
Fall Leaves SVG cut file by Jen Goode
Cricut Foil Transfer tool
Gold foil sheets
Cardstock – I used brown kraft cardstock
Extra paper and twine

Instructions

Upload the leaf SVG cut file to Cricut Design Space. Separate the layers, each leaf includes 3 layers. Hide the middle layer for each leaf and set the layers to cut the leaf shape and foil the line art. Resize so the leaves are whatever size you prefer. I set mine to about 2" tall.
Make sure to attach each line accent to its associated leaf shape. I just set all leaves and draw lines to attach as one image. Either way works.
Follow on-screen instructions to foil and cut out the leaves.
To make the napkin rings, wrap a napkin with a band of paper or fabric. I used a brown paper napkin for my band. Next wrap with twine and tie in place. Finally, add the foil accented leaves you've created. You can tuck them into the twine or glue them in place.

I finished off the look with rose gold plastic flatware from Party City. I think it added just the right look for a fabulous Fall setup!

You can add more interest to your Fall place setting by using different paper colors too. I used watercolor paints to add a splash of color to my cardstock before cutting. You can also print a printable background paper on plain cardstock for extra interest. Here’s a similar leaf place setting with Fall background papers you can download.

Once you’ve wrapped your napkin with a band of paper or fabric, wrap twine and add the leaves. It’s a really quick and easy craft that adds a punch of sparkle. Perfect for dressing up the table, no matter the occasion!
