CRAFT: Harvest Napkin Rings


I'm very fortunate this year that I've been excused from hosting Thanksgiving at my house.  My wonderful mother gets to do the honors,so I promised to help embellish table.  I came up with these easy, but adorable napkin rings.

What you'll need:
pages of an old book
glue gun and glue
a tiny stamp (i just cut mine out of rubber to make a triangle)
a paint stamp pad
fake maple leaves
First:  Fold your book page over and over until you have a long skinny rectangle.
Second:  Glue the last fold down to keep the rectangle in place.
Third:  Roll into a ring shape however wide you want it to be and glue down.
Fourth:  Glue your leaf to the ring.
Fifth:  Get your little geometric stamp and paint pad.. stamp a little pattern around the ring.

AND THAT IS IT!  So easy!

    I really like this idea. I am big into using things we already have and this is perfect. It's something the kids could help with too. Found you from the link up. Now a new follower.

    I love this! I'm am going to have to make some of these. They are too cool! I love the book page idea. It never crossed my mind to use book pages for napkin rings. I've always used toilet paper rolls lol. I would love for you to stop by Whimsically Homemade and link up this project at Mixer Monday! http://whimsicallyhomemade.blogspot.com/2012/11/mixer-monday-9.html
