Set a pretty table with silk flower napkin rings themed to the room, holiday or the color of your decor. Preserve your budget to get a wonderful linen tablecloth and matching napkins. Then wave your DIY wand above a couple of craft supplies and festive floral napkin rings seem as if by magic. Choose either of two procedures to make the place setting decor; both homemade napkin ring styles are easy and sturdy enough to soften often.
Stretch Napkin Ring
Cut one or two silk flowers in their stalks, very near the base of the flower, for each napkin ring. Push a threaded needle through the flower bases, singly or 2 at a time.
Select one wide, fabric-covered hair elastic for each napkin ring and position the silk flower on the elastic. Sew the flower securely to this elastic band.
Knot the thread, then cut it off and slip the floral ring over a rolled or gathered napkin.
Green Napkin Ring
Cut the stalk of one silk flower, leaving just enough of this wired stem to wrap around a plastic shower curtain ring.
Wrap the stem and the base of the flower in green florist’s tape. Continue winding the tape across the curtain ring, overlapping each new layer of tape to completely conceal the ring.
Cut the tape after the whole ring is covered in the blossom is fixed to the ring. Squeeze the end of the tape to the covered ring so it is indistinguishable. Slide the ring over a rolled napkin or the narrow end of a folded and fanned napkin.
