How to Make Flower Napkin Rings

Floral napkin rings add a classy touch.

Napkin rings are small circular accessories that slip over napkin rolls, holding not only the napkin together but the selected silverware inside as well. While there are many different styles and designs of napkin rings available for purchase in stores, the option of making your own is a less expensive way to create a one-of-a-kind napkin ring set. One fun and bright idea that is perfect for summer or floral themed meals is to make flower napkin rings.

Things You'll Need

• Plain wooden napkin rings
• Faux roses or flowers of your choice
• Hot glue gun
• Scissors

Instructions

1. Gather some faux flowers of your choice and twist them at the bud to detach them from the stem.

2. Use scissors to cut away all excess green plastic from around the bottom of the flower bud. Make sure that you create a flat area that can be pressed against the surface of the napkin rings.

3. Apply a dot of hot glue on a wooden napkin ring in the spot where you'd like the flower to be. Press the faux flower bloom down over the glue, making sure not to burn yourself.

4. Allow the glue to dry before attaching any other flowers to the rings. You can choose to glue a single large bloom to each ring, or attach multiple flowers around the entire ring.
