How Do You Use A Napkin Ring?

There are different ways to use napkin holders. How you fold the napkin to fit the ring will probably depend on the type of event.

But you can simply pinch the napkin in the center and pull it through the ring.

Proper table etiquette implies that once your food is served, you should put the napkin on your lap, and the napkin ring goes up to the left side of your tableware.

Once you have your flowers and supplies, you’re ready to start crafting.

Paper

Ribbon

Supplies for Floral Napkin Rings:

thin flexible floral wire
thick gauge floral wire or metal ring
floral tape
wire cutters
succulent clippings
flowers in various colors and sizes
cloth napkins
fabric ribbon
floral scissors

Instructions to Craft the Floral Napkin Rings:

Step 1: Bending

Start by measuring and bending a ring around your napkin with a thick gauge floral wire. This will be approximately 2-3 inches in diameter.

Step 2: Succulent flower

Start with a succulent or larger thick stem flower for the center of the ring. Cut a succulent head off the plant and cut a small piece of wire.

Step 3: Wire

Insert the wire into the bottom of the succulent and cut off a piece of tape.

Step 4: Wrapping

Wrap the floral tape around the base of the succulent down to the floral wire to secure the succulent in place on the wire.

Step 5: Mini bouquet

Wrap the wire from the succulent around the wire ring to secure the succulent in place. This will serve as the center of the mini bouquet you will create at the top of the napkin ring.

Step 6: Center head

Cut off florals towards the center head of the flower. Bring in florals towards the base of the succulent and wrap them around the ring, securing with tape as you continue to add more to the your little bouquet.

Step 7: Adding flowers

Continue adding flowers away from the center until the mini bouquet at the top of the ring is full. Real houseplant flowers are great to use for a fresh decoration. But fake flowers will last if you want to reuse them.

Step 8: Add ribbon

To finish off the napkin ring and to make it easier to fit the napkin through the ring, add ribbon to the finished ring. Start by wrapping at one side of the ring and continue wrapping around the ring until you reach the top/center again. Secure in place with a pin or tape if needed.

Slide the flower napkin rings around your cloth napkins and use to add a little elegance for a spring table or dinner parties. Make these early in the day or a day ahead of time and store in the fridge to keep fresh!
