Transcript

I have this great idea instead of chargers, instead of paying a fortune for chargers, I want to try and do these menu placemats. So I'm at Staples right now. They didn't have the linen paper that I wanted, so I had talked to them and they said that I could bring in my own and try and print it. So we're gonna try that and see if I can make this come to life. So let's go. So this is the linen paper. I don't know if I'll be able to get it on camera, but I don't know if you can tell. Yes. Very linen-y. So I think I didn't know how they're gonna center over, but he just had me email the document to him, which worked out perfectly because I've brought like two cords, worried like I was gonna have to plug up my phone. You guys. Oh my gosh. So the plate can go here and we have clear square plates. And then I'm so obsessed. So gorgeous. I'm so obsessed.
