NOTES:

Let dry completely between painting steps.

3. Punch a hole in each cup near the top.

4. Paint a paper tag in a coordinating color for each cup. Print out the text in a desired font labeled "forks", "spoons", "straws", and "knives". Cut each out. Add decorative ribbon or tape to the bottom of the tag. Use Americana Matte Decou-Page to adhere the text to the tag.

5. Use a pencil and ruler to draw an "x" form between corners of the base. Apply painter's tape to the area that will be painted. Paint each triangle in Black Tie, Deep Turquoise, Eggplant, and Pumpkin Patch.

6. If needed, paint the metal stand in Black Tie. Paint the holder's handle in Pumpkin Patch.
