Just a quick post regarding these little gems.
Idea, to make these into napkin rings and I had the perfect person to make them for, Gail.
My handyman John, stepped up and using his Dremal tool he cut these openings for a napkin to fit.
A dry brushing with Old Ochre ASCP with a light sanding sponge.
Filled four with green napkins one of Gail’s favorite colors and done. NOTE: You may notice that pretty stained table they are on. My handyman made me a beauty of a craft table for my office. Sharing very soon.
I was correct, John dropped them off and Gail loves them, she’s so easy, HA, HA. Love you lady!

This answers some questions for me. I saw something similar on Pinterest a few years ago, but when I found he pots at Michael’s, I knew I could never get a napkin through the hole. Now I understand.

Those are so cute! I never would’ve thought to make them into napkin rings. The extra bit of paint on them gives them an antique look. Your friend Gail will love them.

Cynthia, I love this idea! I just asked hubby if he had a dremmel tool and he said, yes. Yahoo! I am so going to do this for when I set my table with a garden theme. Thanks for the inspiration friend!

This is such a clever idea! You did a wonderful job of ageing them and the napkins coordinate beautifully. I have a dremel tool gathering dust in my basement (my only “power tool”), so am thinking I might just try this myself 😉
