hi all!

I was hoping to tie ribbon around all the napkins for the placesettings and I just am unsure of how much to order or even how to do the napkins! Any ideas?

Well first off, why don't go to a craft store and look for the kind of ribbon that you like. Buy just one roll of the ribbon or just one yard (depending on how they sell the ribbon).

Then you would want to go home and take the same kind of napkins that you will be using for your placesetting and make a ribbon/bow around the napkins.

Make the bow in the size/shape of what you wou would like and then cut. From that cutting, you will multiply by how many placesettings you would need. Then you can figure out how many yards to buy.

Great advice, MsJadey! We estimated how ribbon was needed per napkin then multiplied it by the number of guests. Make sure to keep your receipts in case you buy too much ribbon. We had a lot of people comment on the ribbon aorund the napkin as a nice touch. Inexpensive way to add color to your tables :)
