Manners, I like manners. In fact I think that the boys can get away with most things, if they say please, thank you and have table manners.
We are teaching the boys to help around the house, well they have been since they could walk really and lately they have been trying to set the table, but their constant “I cant remember which side the fork goes on mummy” has been driving me crackers, especially as I am in the kitchen preparing the dinner.
So I put my thinking cap on and came up with these…….
My first attempt at free form sewing. I used some fabric I already had in for the mats, lined with some towel and then cut up a plain tea towel and sewed it on, so the boys now know where everything goes.
I shouldn’t have to ever set the table again or tell them why anything goes.
I am contemplating more of these and might even sell some to make some pocket money to enable me to buy more fabric. What do you think? Would you buy one? If so how much would you be willing to pay?
