Jute Napkin Rings

In my attempt to add some coastal flair to my home,

I pieced this together,

 for a centerpiece.

While visiting Pottery Barn, 

these napkin rings were on display.

The perfect inspiration for my coastal,

 table top theme.

I did not take notice of their price,

 because my (cheap) mind

was already thinking ahead as to how I was going to make something similar,

for a lot less.

I found this bag of very basic, wood napkin rings

at my local G.W.

Can you see the price?

Here, let me help you, $1.99.

8 rings came in the bag.

The roll of jute came from my supply lair.

                                    

Leaving about 3 inches of excess jute at the beginning, 

I wound the jute around and around and around the ring,

leaving some excess at the end as well.

I cut another strip of jute about 4 inches long and used it,

together with the excess ends of jute,

to make a knot.
