When I was finishing putting away holiday decorations, I remembered a super simple DIY project I did last year. Is it just me or are napkin rings wayyyyyy over priced? Sure they look really pretty, but for some thing that is purely decorative, who wants to pay $20 or so for a set of 4?!!???!
For this DIY project, I bought some holiday garland at Michael's on clearance (make sure the garland is very flexible and that the wire is not too thick to cut).
Simply estimate the size you need to cut for your napkin rings and how many napkin rings you can make out of your garland. Next, you would cut your garland into the appropriate sizes, and mold around a round object about the size of a napkin ring (a key ring works good for this, or you can just wing it!)
Using only one piece of garland, I was able to create 12 napkin rings (to go with my set of 12 red napkins on sale from Home Goods)
I plan on making another set of napkin rings using dollar store shower curtain rings and wrapping them in some thing decorative!!
