"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. I just want to show you the pleating. This is a wider pleating that I've done around this, but look how nice this looks. If you did you're ribbon in closer you would have an even tighter pleat. See how lovely that looks when you've finished wrapping your napkin ring holder. Now take the flowers you've selected. For this spring one I did a lovely purple orchid. You can use any kind of flower that you love and you just clip the back of it. It's going to take a little bit of doing because this one has a little bit of wire in it. It doesn't matter that this is larger than your napkin ring. I'm going to put some glue on the back of that and really glue kind of all around the base. Just glue that right on there. You're going to have to hold this for a minute while that glue makes contact. I'm not going to add any other flower to this cause I think that orchid looks just great by itself. Don't you agree?"
