With just a few simple supplies, you can create custom napkin rings that look high-end but cost next to nothing!
As a bonus, I’ll show you how to fold your napkins into a bow!
There is so much to learn, so let’s get started!
Gather supplies
Gather or purchase the following items you will need for this easy project:
- shower curtain rings-Walmart
- ribbon of your choice-Hobby Lobby
- flowers- Michaels
- scissors
- hot glue gun and glue sticks
Steps to make Flower napkin rings
Cover the ring
To give your flower napkin rings a polished look, wrap the plastic shower curtain ring with ribbon.
Start by adding a small dab of hot glue to the inside of the ring and press the end of the ribbon into it.
Then, begin wrapping the ribbon tightly around the ring, overlapping slightly as you go to ensure full coverage.
Tip: Be careful when using hot glue, as it can burn you! Consider using silicone finger protectors to prevent burns. They make it much easier to press the ribbon into place without worrying about the heat!
Continue wrapping and gluing small sections until the entire ring is covered.
Once you reach the end, snap the ring closed and secure the ribbon with another small dab of glue on the inside for a seamless finish.
Here is the finished ring!
I need nine, so I have eight more to go! Time to get busy!
Attach flower
Now it’s time to add the star of the show—the flower!
Add a dab of hot glue to the top of the ring.
Press the flower into the hot glue.
I put another dab of glue on each side of the flower to make sure it would stay!
Isn’t it cute!
I just love how these flower napkin rings turned out!
Who knew a cheap plastic shower curtain ring could look so good!!!
There’s no end to what you could glue on the top of the ring.
You could use a small Easter egg or a tiny nest!
Just use your imagination!!
Here is the napkin holder holding a white napkin.
I decided to make the napkin into a bow!
Here are the instructions to make this!
How to fold A napkin into a bow
Follow my step-by-step instructions to turn a napkin into this cute bow!
Lay your napkin flat on the table.
Fold the napkin in half to make a triangle.
Next, fold the top corner down approximately two inches.
Turn the napkin down, a second time.
The third time’s a charm!
Finish up with the fourth fold!
Now you need to fold the right side inward but angled down a bit.
Next, fold the left side inward and across the right side.
Turn the napkin holder upside down and slide it through the right end of the bow.
Then continue sliding the right side of the bow through the ring.
Turn the bow over and pull the ends down.
Fluff top of the bow until you get the look you like!
Wow, just like that and you have a beautiful bow!
In Conclusion
These DIY flower napkin rings prove that small details can make a big impact on your table decor.
Not only are they easy and affordable to make, but they also add a personal, handmade touch that your guests will love.
So gather your supplies and start crafting—your table is about to get a gorgeous upgrade!”
If you don’t have time to make your napkin rings, you should try folding your napkins in a bow!

You are so creative !, Love it! I hope you have a lot of followers!
Thanks Sharon! So good to hear from you! I’m glad you’re enjoying the blog!
What a great idea!! And I love the napkin folding, too. Great tutorial! Have you seen the silicone finger protectors yet? I got mine at Dollar Tree; they are bright pink so I can find them easily. Makes holding hot glue things in position SO much easier and safer! I stick them on the ends of my glue sticks to store them!
Thanks so much! I look for those finger protectors every time I go to Dollar Tree and I’ve never seen them there! I really need them lol!!
What a great idea Donna and such a pretty end result! Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you! I love to share projects that are easy and inexpensive but turn out wonderful! Have a great day, Donna
