Instructions
Step 1
The easiest and most original way to make do-it-yourself napkin rings is to tie them with a wide satin ribbon. Choose the color of the ribbon based on the color of the table. Cut it into pieces of equal length, carefully singe the edges so that they do not crumble. Tie the ribbon around the napkin with a beautiful bow.
Step 2
You can make cute napkin rings with toilet paper rolls or paper towels. The sleeve must be covered with self-adhesive paper. After that, with a sharp clerical knife, the sleeve must be carefully cut into parts equal in length. If the edges are a little uneven, sand them with fine-grained emery paper. Napkin rings are ready.
Step 3
Instead of self-adhesive paper, you can use a printout, for example, with the names of guests or pictures and ornaments in the spirit of the whole holiday. In this case, the paper must be glued to the sleeve. This process is more time consuming. The glue must be spread on the sleeve with a thin layer, and the paper itself must be leveled when gluing so that there are no creases and bubbles.
Step 4
You can also make napkin rings from ordinary cardboard. It needs to be cut into strips, and the ends of the strips should be glued. As a decoration for rings, you can use any decorative trifles suitable for the occasion. These can be pieces of cloth, small shells, leaves, natural flowers, sprigs of berries, paper butterflies, dragonflies and much more.
Step 5
Knitted napkin rings look no less original. To make them, you need to crochet a strip of the pattern you like, and then sew its ends. If you want the rings to look spectacular, especially when combined with plain colored napkins, you can starch the knitted rings. Additionally, you can decorate the rings with knitted flowers or motifs you like.
Step 6
Beaded napkin rings also look interesting. As the basis of such a ring, you need to take a thin and strong wire. The wire must keep its shape. Using round nose pliers, shape the wire into a ring. If you wish, you can make not one, but several turns. So, a ring on a napkin will look more impressive. Pick up the beads that are suitable in color and size and string them on the wire. Fix the outer beads with a drop of hot glue. Beads can be combined in color, shape and size, making interesting compositions. You can additionally decorate the rings with voluminous beaded figures. They will need to be woven from smaller beads, stringing them on a thin wire according to the pattern.
