How to Use Flowers for Spring Napkin Holders

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Stephanie Barnett. On behalf of Expert Village, I'm here to show you how to make seasonal napkin ring holders. Ooh! Look how lovely spring is. So now I want you to take your artificial flowers and I've chosen some pink kind of cherry blossoms. You want to cut kind of in on the flower. You don't want a long stem on it, and I want to do one big one in the middle. And two smaller ones; that's a small one, that's a small one; on the sides and I want to also have two leaves, one on each side. So I've cut those off and I'm just going to apply the hot glue to the stem and the base of the flower. And just poke that right down and hold it for a minute. There we go, and I'm going to put a pink little flower on each side. Again, get the stem, and I'm going to place that right next to it. I'm going to do the other small flower on the other side. Three is always better than, an odd number of flowers for these arrangements are better than even. So if you're going to do five, like all the way around. Now I want to add the green leaves. So I'm going to go all along the back. I don't have to glue the entire leaf, but I'm just gluing the stem part of it. We're going to slip that underneath the flower and hold that down. And then see how I'm wrapping it around? Do the same thing to the other on on the other side. And it's okay if these leaves overlap. Okay, you see how that leaf is sticking up? I want you to put a little more glue on the end. And you can also do this with your craft glue. There! Doesn't that look lovely?"
