I am not really a fan of placemats. I like them when they're pretty, but it doesn't make cleanup any faster or easier, in my opinion. It certainly dresses up the table, which is nice, but it's not something that I consider necessary or even very desirable. That is, until I saw placemats from Hello Hanna! They look so cute and fun that I felt an instant attraction for them.
However, there are a couple of things that hold me back from taking the plunge and splurging on them. First, they are made of uncoated cardstock, which means they're probably not going to last you very many meals. I prefer placemats that are infinitely reusable, or close to it. Lol! Second, I personally believe that there should be few distractions at the meal table. Mealtime is when we all focus on each other and actually have a real conversation. That means, no cellphones, no TV and no toys. The Hello Hanna placemats can definitely qualify as a toy for the meal table.
Having said all that, I still can't get away from oogling them! They are just so cute! Curious yet? Check it out for yourself:
