Did you hit the after Christmas sales this year? I did. I wanted some new lights but they were the first things to go. This past weekend Hobby Lobby had their Christmas marked down to 90% off. It was pretty picked though but there were some things left.
When I came across some miniature ornaments that weren’t really Christmassy, I knew what I wanted to do with them! I have been trying to plan a tablescape for Hunter’s 18th birthday and the western thing was just the way to go!
I first took this metal ribbon and cut it in strips. I used another napkin ring to determine the length. After bending the ribbon into a circle, I used some glue to connect the ends. I used clothes pins to hold them secure until they dried as seen in the picture below.
While they were drying, I took the small ornaments and jiggled the hook until it slipped out.
After the ribbon was dry, I used hot glue to attach the ornament.
And this is the finished product!
For 90 cents, I have a set of 6 custom western themed napkin rings!
Thanks for stopping by!

Very clever...they turned out great! Yes, I hit a few sales and they were quite picked over but I found a few things for next year. Now I am working on white sales. Marshall's has some terrific deals!

Great idea Tammy to use the ornaments to make napkin rings.I am always looking for clever napkin rings and these are perfect.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. I had no idea there was such a thing as metal ribbon, but why not!? You are very clever and those are really great napkin rings. Found you through Debbiedoos! Shannon@SMCbyDesign.com
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome idea!!! Stopping by to say Hi and keep up the great work :) Looking forward to more of your awesome ideas.
ReplyDeleteHow clever!!! It is amazing what one can do on a dollar if you only have a creative mind and hands. You surely did a great makeover on this project. My problem is, I see the stuff and know it is a good deal, but can't think of what to do with it.
