Springtime-Inspired Flower Napkin Rings

Who knew a cardboard paper towel roll could be transformed into something so glamorous?? A few dabs of glue and a few minutes of time reap a collection of spectacular blooms...Gorgeous napkin rings!!...perfect for any special meal.

Magnolias...

Such a small amount of effort goes into making these charming napkin rings.

Pink too... I couldn't decide on a color...so I made both.

Using silk flowers...I purchased mine from a craft store. (All the sources are listed on the blog)

Using a paper towel roll...

Cut 1/2 inch pieces. Cut an opening in each. Lay the cardboard onto a piece of fabric or burlap, that will be just large enough to cover the cardboard completely.

Using hot glue, cover the cardboard one side at a time. Fold down and glue the edges neatly.

Shape the cardboard back into a ring, dot with glue and hold until set.

The napkin ring awaiting the flower.

Snip a flower close to the base, using wire cutters.

Using a small amount of hot glue, carefully press the flower onto the prepared, fabric-wrapped ring. Hold until set.
