Doggie Bags and Placemats

This is less of a strictly “how-to” post than a sharing of ideas I just couldn’t keep to myself. For full instructions on these crafts, check the GoT party planning guide.

If you are planning a feast of any size for the Sunday premiere of Season 2, you may be dreading the thought of what to do with all those leftovers (if you weren’t dreading it, you should be). Fear not, noble cooks! Do as I do, and send it home with your guests in their very own…

Yep, we went there...

Doggie Bags!

The shields are painted with basic yellow craft paint, and the hounds are stenciled on with a sharpie. Easy. Silly. Fun.

The next project is a bit more in depth, but equally fun. For this, we got several sheets of appropriately colored felt, and decorated them to look like the Westerosi house sigils. We felted ours together, but craft paint would also work well. Much of the detail is drawn on with multicolored sharpies. The result is…

Felt Placemats!

So there you go! Two easy crafts for a successful party.

Send us your cool ideas, and we’ll feature them in an upcoming post!

    Doggie bags – I love it! I also love how angry the Tully trout looks.

    You guys are so creative! (I’m sure you knew that already, but after following you for a while I just had to comment at some point.) I just love the idea of your cooking fantasy fare from medieval cookbooks and sharing modern takes on the meals as well. Those placemats are just perfect, from the colors right down to the material!

    Maybe offering guests bread and salt the moment they walk through the door as a guarantee they won’t be harmed?

    Since we do not have a large screen TV, I’m considering a series of mini-parties through the season this year– no more than four guests, plus our family of two. My notion is to start with dishes from the North, and work southward as the weather warms.
