DIY: Paper Fringe Napkin Ring


I’ve used toilet paper rolls for napkin rings before in my Fabric Napkin Ring, but this time I decided to cover the toilet paper roll with paper. The toilet paper roll adds extra stability to the paper napkin ring so doesn’t feel quite so flimsy. I chose metallic paper to add some sparkle and a sense of festiveness, and used fringe to create a nice decorative detail.

DIY: Paper Towel Round Stand


I thought I could use a paper towel roll to create a simple (and disposable) stand. With just a few cuts, it takes minimal time to make and perfect for holding a photo, postcard or a place card holder for a dinner party.

DIY: Toilet Paper Roll Flower


Toilet paper rolls are disposable items we all have. I was looking at one and thought that its shape could lend itself well to a flower. I like the symmetry of something with the word “toilet” in its name coming up roses (figuratively speaking).

DIY: Fabric Napkin Ring


Truthfully, I’m not sure if I can recall a time I really used napkin rings; they add a sense of formality that I don’t find particularly necessary. However, they can add some color and personality to the table, and this is a simple way to make your own napkin rings.

I had a paper towel roll and thought that it could easily be converted into a napkin ring.
