Hey party people!
I’ve been in love with golden silverware for quite some time. I’ve been on the look out…hoping to find an amazing deal so I can have my own set of golden beauties. So far…no dice.
That’s when I decided to take matters into my own hands. Why can’t I DIY Golden Silverware?
That’s exactly what I did! And it’s so easy and budget-friendly, you can do it too!
Here’s what you’ll need:
Gold Washi Tape (I didn’t even use a whole roll for mine) and plain silverware (I used our every day silverware).
Instructions:
1. Cut a strip of washi tape so that it starts at the top of the handle & goes just a tad longer than the bottom of the handle.
2. Lay the washi tape on the handle & smooth it out. Fold the excess over at the bottom and sides (if necessary).
3. Do the same on the backside, except just cut it the same length as the handle.
Now you have a whole set of golden silverware that cost you a few bucks! When you’re done, just pull off the tape & wash.
Here is the link to the golden washi tape I used. And check out the gold glitter tape too! How fun would that be? I’d eat anything from glittered silverware!
I’ll share the entire glam Thanksgiving table this Wednesday! Until then…start creating your own washi tape silverware!

Genius idea!!! I love gold silverware too but I can’t justify buying it when I already have a great silver set. I will definitely be giving this tutorial a try!

I know, me too. One day, maybe I’ll be able to justify it, but until then…I’ll DIY them. <3 Heidi

West Elm currently has gold silverware and I am in love!! Your option is perfect though, I like that it’s an inexpensive option to getting the same look. And who knows, gold might be “out” next year 😉
