Ombre Napkin Ring (from tape dispenser roll!)

Feb 24, 2012

This project costs practically nothing, since the actually napkin ring is made from your trash. More specifically, the plastic tape roll inside the tape dispenser!

This is a great ombre project! In case you aren't familiar with the definiton of ombre, you can find it right here.

Supplies:
One plastic ring tape dispenser (I seriously have no idea what to call them - tape rolls?)
about 3-6  long pieces of embroidery floss in one general color, ranging from light to dark
scissors
a bit of glue

 Start with the tape dispenser roll...

So I heard that Google Friend Connect is closing for Wordpress blogs! 
They've all worked hard (like all of us bloggers) to build up followers.

SO, who knows when they might shut down GFC for Blogger? I would hate to lose any followers,
so I've created multiple ways any ACC reader can follow!

Linky Followers
This has become popular among the Blogosphere! I've added a Linky Followers gadget in the side bar - I'd love if you would follow!

Facebook
Check out my FB page here. I'm constantly adding new post updates and ideas!

Google +
Same as Facebook, I'll be adding new post updates here as well. I admit i'm still figuring it all out, but I'm sure
we'll all become pros soon enough.

Pinterest
I post almost all my tutorials on my Pinterest. It's a great way to follow tutorial updates!

Email
I have a gadget in my sidebar that allows you to enter your email. Every time I post, the update appears
in your inbox!

You can find links to all of these in the right-hand sidebar.
