There is nothing more rewarding than making something beautiful out of the generosity of mother nature! The other day, I was finishing my Christmas woodland tablescape when an idea bulb flashed in my head. Armed with my small pruning shear, I went to the backyard {my favorite source of materials in most of my projects} and gathered vines, pine tree leaves and cones. After 25 minutes, here's what I have came up with : 6 woodland-inspired table napkin rings without spending a single cent.
1. Cut about 12 inches of pliable vine/tree branch. Using a paper towel tube as guide or mold, make a ring out of the vine/tree branch.
2. Join both ends of the vine with a glue gun. The ring should be sturdy to hold a cloth table napkin.
3. Take pine tree leaves and pine cones {still attached to the branch} and tie them with jute twine {or other available twine you have on hand}
4. Squeeze a generous amount of hot glue on the ring you made earlier and attached the ribboned pine leaves and cones.
Now you have a beautiful Christmas table napkin rings courtesy of Mother Nature!
