I may not be able to go to the ocean...at least not right now. That only leaves one option for me. I've got to bring the ocean to me.
These napkin rings are super simple to make and
they allow for a lot of creativity of your own. Here's what you need.
4- 5 inch strips of burlap ribbon
Assorted Sea Shells
Small Pieces of Felt
Hot Glue
1. Affix one of the small pieces of felt to the back of the sea shells. This is help provide stability to the shell and make adorning the burlap ribbon much easier.
2. After the hot glue is dry, attach the shell to the burlap ribbon. I used hot glue again.
3. After the sea shell has been affixed and if dry, hot glue the two ends of the ribbon together forming a circle. If you wanted, you could make the burlap ribbon strips a little longer and then simply tie the ends together. I like the finality of glueing the ribbon ends together.
4. To prevent burning your fingers and also to provide more stability to your ring, I suggest affixing one of piece of felt underneath the ring over the glue. The felt acts as a binder.
See? Super simple and one step closer to the ocean. Stay tuned the rest of the week. I'll be sharing how I used these napkin rings in my summer tablescape. I think you will enjoy it. In the meantime, did you miss yesterdays Summer Sunrise Mocktail recipe? Here's a link for you.
