Partridge place card instructions

For a personalised welcome, make handwritten place cards using heavy cartridge paper.

A beautifully decorated table creates a special atmosphere for times of feasting. This elegant pear-tree design, made from crisp, snow-white, best quality A4 paper, looks magical on a decorative glass plate. The only tools you need are a scalpel or pair of sharp scissors. We used a vintage glass plate – look out for them in antique markets or stalls.
