Stephanie — Thu, 17 May 2012 07:00:23 +0000

We all entertain in different forms. Some may host small groups of friends, dinner parties, or maybe the occasional shower. That is part of the reason I love “The Handcrafted Wedding”. It brings us so many ideas that can be used outside of a wedding.

These ideas for napkin rings are simple, elegant, and pefect for your next party. You can customize your napkin rings with artwork on cardstock, ribbon, buttons, and herbs. Your guests will appreciate the simple touches you put into your table setting.

I am constantly looking for new ways to decorate my table. While I like to keep the food as the main focal point I do like to have something pretty adorning my table.
