Does anyone actually use napkin rings? I have to admit, I don’t, though I came up with these three versions for a Thanksgiving craft story I wrote for AP. The first version, with the bell, is a bit fancier than the others, though it is probably the easiest to make. The second version is a felted wool ball sewn onto a strip of felted wool sweater. The third version is my favorite. Can you guess what the acorn is made of? ……………. CRAYONS! I had seen a tutorial online for making beeswax acorns by creating a mold out of Play-Doh and then filling it with melted beeswax, so I decided to try it with crayons, and it worked!
