When I initially started planning, I really wanted to get the diamond ring napkin holders but they are ridiculously expensive and outta the budget. So, i intially decided to skip napkin rings until I saw a DIY project from another wedding site for them. It was simple enough and decided to make a few to see how I like them. They looked really cute and would give the places settings just a little bit more sparkle ;)
They are made out of toilet paper rolls, painted with metallic silver paint from Michael's and then hot glued diamond mesh around it. There was a bit of seam where the mesh didn't "perfectly" come together, just a bit, so I tied of bow on it. I liked the pink so I decided to put a bow on all of them.
What do ya ladies think?

Kendra - Hey you know the cheapest place I found was ebay, they sell by the yard. So, I bought 2 yards, but ended up needing 1 more. It was maybe 8-10 bucks, total with shipping for the 2 yards. And i've used that 3 yards on EVERYTHING so far, it's gone a long way.
But hearing your (mostly) good experiences w/ them , I might try it more. It's just time consuming! LOL!
