    DIY Napkin Rings For this rus­tic patri­ot­ic table set­ting I am using my secret weapon…DIY Nap­kin Rings! They are super sim­ple and quick to make when you’re in a pinch or just want to spruce up a table with­out spend­ing the extra dollars.  Paper Napkins My oth­er trick to set­ting a beau­ti­ful patri­ot­ic table is paper nap­kins!

    This project was inspired by THIS ONE I made last year. I decid­ed to try my hand at cre­at­ing some­thing with a more prim­i­tive look. Prim­i­tive and clas­sic has always been my favorite theme for sum­mer hol­i­days. There just seems to be a lot of nos­tal­gia dur­ing the warmer months.  Prim­i­tives usu­al­ly have dark­er shades of col­or with a nice rus­tic feel to them and that is what I want­ed to make sure I cap­tured with this lit­tle ban­ner.

Inspi­ra­tion came for this project as I stood gaz­ing out my win­dow dread­ing the yard work in my near future. Then it hit me…why do yard work when you can DIY?  Me and my handy man, Linc, went and gath­ered a few branch­es. I mean after all, we were get­ting limbs out of the yard. Two birds, one stone and…
