Cut a piece of jute and wrap around the center of your napkin ring, tie in a knot and fray the ends. I really love how simple and rustic these turned out! When I’m using fabric napkins, I like to also add a paper napkin to add some interest and color. Check out my full Autumn Nights Get Together with my DIY Autumn Leaves Garland and yummy recipe for Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Whoopie Pies, to celebrate the end of my favorite season!
