    Abstract: A placemat of the type used for organizing a table setting, the placemat having a cover which is removably attached over a rigid support member. In a preferred embodiment, the rigid support member is formed of a wood material and in a substantially rectangular configuration. The cover is formed of a flexible material, such as a fabric, and is provided with an elastic material along its perimeter to maintain the cover in position around the rigid support member. At least one further cover having a predetermined graphic aspect is provided around the cover. The graphical aspect of the cover and the partial cover may be advantageously selected to have a predetermined significance, thereby eliminating the need for separate placemats for different occasions and holidays.
