Why make your own Napkin Rings

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why Make Your Own Napkin Rings?

I can think of a million reasons! Okay maybe not a million, but definitely a few very good reasons why you should.

Napkin rings are a simple yet wonderful way to dress up your table, they add that extra glam and sparkle to an otherwise boring table. They can give that touch of romance to a wedding dinner and cheers to your Christmas lunches.




Making your own gives you the freedom to choose the color and design to suit the theme of the occasion. Be it a formal dinner to impress the boss, a wedding, a Christmas or Thanksgiving dinner, all you need is the right material and some imagination! The easiest way is to use beads and wires. Or it can be as easy as putting the beads you like on an elastic thread. Bead or craft stores carry all sorts of beautiful beads and trinkets or charms you can use to make your own napkin rings. You can even make them from recycled materials such as cardboard tubes and ribbons. There are many tutorials that you can find on the internet that shows you how to make them.






Making your own napkin rings is much cheaper than buying them from the stores and they make a great souvenir or party favor which your guests can take home with them after a memorable event.







And most importantly to me, making my own napkin rings is a lot of fun! I even have a good time shopping for the materials. There's so many designs that you can do with beads, ribbons and wires, it is all up to your creativity and imagination. Try it, and have fun dressing up your table!

I am impressed with your post regarding Napkin rings concept. I have not ever thought about that idea. I am giving one dinner party to my boss and this is great idea to have napkin containing beautiful rings.
Thanks for sharing it!

I'm not so sure that it would be cheaper to buy all the stuff to make yourself a set of custom napkin rings, but it would certainly be more fulfilling, creative, unique, and artistic to do so.

I customize my computer and bookmarks the same way, even going to the point to create entire pages of iconic bookmarks for subjects I am interested in so I can keep track of them without having to search the web sewers so much.

You have done some lovely work and I'd suggest you visit Deviant Art and publish some pictures of your work there. The community would love them.

You could sell your work and creativity as well. Think of some really far out designed and show them to filming and production companies and offer them as props for mention in the film.

You have an awesome talent and I hope you continue doing what you are doing.

I feel that in the future jobs are going to be so hard to get that creating your own job is the way to go. Much as I am doing now myself.

I wish that you can give me some instructions on how to do this. I have been trying to do this for the past 4 hours and just staring at your pictures to try and get it the same. I guess it just takes some practice.

Worth the read. I find this post very informative and creative. These napkin bracelets are really cool to look at and somehow give a lighter atmosphere to the people eating on the dining table because of the differently colored beads. Thanks a bunch for sharing. ^.^

I've been making my own for years, and really enjoy the custom appearance they give to a setting. I can tailor different rings for different occasions.

Why don't you make a video of this? For us, the not-so-talented with our hands, a video will work wonders! Just a suggestion. Thanks for your art :)
