Valentine's Day Craft: Flower Napkin Rings

Description

Valentine’s Day celebrates romantic love in Western society and, back in the 1800s, it was celebrated with handmade Valentine cards and gifts to the person that had your affections.  Today, it’s a much more commercialized holiday, where people buy expensive jewelry or other costly items to symbolize their love.  This year I wanted to bring it back to its roots – handmade love.  That’s why we’re celebrating with a home-cooked meal, handmade cards and gifts, and handmade decorations. 

Step 1:

Cut the darkest color to a 9 x 2.5 inch strip, and the lighter color to 9 x 1.5 inches.
