This is PRECIOUS!!
It's a idea to use for cloth napkins. The photo in the issue shows some bright colored funky ones, but I had some beautifully trimmed antique white ones in a drawer that I wanted to try....
It turned out like this
Isn't that the cutest??!! I tied them with some leftover raffia that I had in my "craft bag" (the article suggested twine, but I was, ummm, fresh out of that!!) . Sooo , when your guests need a napkin at your next little soiree, they can simply "pluck" a flower and unroll. Too cute!
Instructions:
Open napkin flat; then fold the lower left corner to the top right corner. Then, fold lower right corner to the top left corner, forming a triangle. Starting at one corner of the long edge of the triangle, roll it firmly toward the other corner. The result mimics the tight bud of a flower! Tie the "stems" with ribbon or twine, and loosely gather (like a bunch of flowers) in a compote or bowl (I used a low vase). Enjoy!

That is cute! But probably wouldn't work quite as well with the paper napkins we stock here! :)
These are absolutely darling! I'm holding a bridal shower for my cousin out in my garden and these will be perfect!! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing. That is a great idea and looks simple enough that someone not so crafty, like myself, could do.
Blessings
