How to Make Round Jute Place Mats
Today we welcome Jen from City Farmhouse to makeround jute place mats! While round placemat-style charges have been around for years, these are a fresh take for spring! The natural texture of untreated jute are fun for setting a pretty,spring table. This would also be fun to make a larger sided one for a rope-style centerpiece on a table. Make sure to use natural, untreated jute twine, and these are not for direct contact with food. Jen: Hi everyone!Thank you for welcoming me back today! I wanted to show you how to make these really cute round jute place mats for your table settings! My name is Jen & I blog over at City Farmhouse. So I thought I would share a really easy project to prepare you for those last minute impromptu summer{& spring} gatherings.
Supplies to Make a Round Jute Placemat
All you need for this project is 3/8″ jute rope, a hot glue gun, and a surface to work on
I used about 34″ feet give or take to make each 13″ across in diameter. As I went around I pressed firmly before adding glue to the next length of jute.
The rustic texture adds a nice element to the table.
Did you notice my napkin rings?I also picked those up at the hardware store for just a few dollars.The contrast works well with the beachy/cottage feel& what a conversation piece:).
Simple & easy:).
You should be able to make 6 for around $40, which is a savings of around $80!
Cute right? Wouldn’t these jute chargers look so cute on your table? If you like this project you may also like these, {just click the image}

I love these. I was looking for placemats like these for my Thanksgiving table last year and gave up because I couldn’t find anything affordable. I definitely want to give this a try. Love the colors of the napkins and flowers too. Very pretty.
That Jen, She sure is talented. I think I will be giving these a go 🙂
Those are awesome. Where did you buy the jute?
Love the texture they add to the table!

Love this. Great DIY.
These are beautiful! Great job.
These are great! I am going to try them. I found the 3/8″ jute rope on Amazon fairly inexpensive!
These are fabulous. I will definitely have to make a set of these.
Such an amazing and stunning knock off- I love these!!
What type of work surface did you work on to keep it flat yet not to stick to surface? I’m a beginner and sometimes find problems that I wonder if others encounter.
These are great!
The best part is, you can make them as large or small as you’d like!
I have antique and vintage ironstone dishes which tend to be smaller and the large placemats and chargers typically look gigantic with my plates!
You’re so smart!
Thank you!
