Table decorations for faith celebrations

The year offers all kinds of occasions and opportunities for handicrafts. So do celebrations of faith such as confirmation and communion. In these instructions, we show you several ideas for atmospheric and coordinated table decorations.

Cast fish as memo holders

The memo holders are made from cast resin and make wonderful holders for your guests' name tags.

1. Mix some casting resin according to the instructions on the packet and pour enough resin into each mould to cover the bottom. Allow the mixture to dry thoroughly for at least 12 hours.

2. Now add some glitter to the moulds.

3. Stir a portion of resin again and pour it into the mould. Important: To make it easier to remove the castings from the mould after drying, do not fill the moulds to the brim.

After 24 hours of drying time, the castings can be removed from the mould.

4. Drill holes carefully in the fish from above.

5. Fix the memo holders in the holes with a little craft glue.

6. Now you can make name tags out of any paper and place them in the memo holders.

Paper napkin rings

For a harmonious colour scheme on the table, you can make matching paper napkin rings.

1. Cut strips of paper, stick satin ribbon around the edges and glue together to form rings.

2. Stamp the stamp motifs onto white paper and cut them to size.

3. Stick the individual motifs onto the napkin rings using 3D adhesive pads. This is a quick and easy way to make individual napkin rings.

A small gift for the celebration of faith

Would you like to bring a small gift for confirmation or communion? A personalised card or a small gift box can be made quickly and the person receiving the gift will be very happy about it.

Personalised card

2. Stamp the stamp motif onto white cardboard and cut it out.

3. Draw a pennant on white cardboard, cut it out and label it with the name.

4. Stick satin ribbon around the card with craft glue and stick the pennant on. Fix the stamp motif with 3D adhesive pads.
