    Hi Bees!

    I stumbled upon these cute little guys on etsy and I want to try and make some to use as napkin holders. Kinda like those paper pom napkin holders...

    these kinda remind be of Kleenex Flowers

    ETA: I know you prob don't want to use tissues, but im sure you can adapt it to what you want.  like taking the material you have, stacking a few sheets on top of each other, and then folding them like and accordion and folling the rest of the tutorial.

    I think you're really close! Just add a little more and they'll be very similar.

    Love those!  I got something similar for a cake garland, but if I had time I would've made my own and they'd probably turn out better than what I bought.

    Good luck!!

    Here's a Martha Stewart how-to. It uses tissue paper, but I'm sure you could just adjust it to fabric.
