Easy DIY Thanksgiving Napkin Rings Steps:
To make your own easy DIY Thanksgiving Napkin Rings, you’ll first measure your paper roll into 2.75″ increments and mark the measurements with a pen or pencil. Cut at your markings — your one paper towel tube should give you four sections (four napkin rings). Trim uneven ends if necessary.
Wrap burlap around the paper tube twice. We would recommend having the burlap lay just slightly beyond the cardboard tube so it won’t show. Secure burlap in place with hot glue.
Wrap twine around each piece of burlap about 6-10 times. Tie a knot to secure the twine in place. Take one of your wood leaves and place the leaf onto the twine and tie it around the stem of the leaf. We recommend securing with a bit of hot glue too.
Continue repeating these steps until you have the desired number of napkin rings.
There is lots of napkin folds you can use to add your napkin into your easy DIY Thanksgiving Napkin Rings. The easiest way is to find the center of your cloth napkin and pinch in the middle and hold your napkin up, allowing the napkin to fall & fold naturally.
While holding the napkin napkin ring in one hand, slide the napkin ring over the pinched end and pull your napkin through so the pinched end is fully through. Pull your napkin though so that your napkin rings is holding the napkin securely. If your napkin is very thick, you may not be able to pull it through as far as we have shown, but adjust as necessary.
