9. Dried Flower Imprint Napkin Rings
For the hostess who loves a perfectly set table, clay napkin rings are the ultimate final touch. By incorporating natural elements, you bridge the gap between indoor luxury and outdoor organic beauty.
The Aesthetic: Pale, neutral-toned clay rings featuring delicate, pressed imprints of wildflowers or ferns.
The Process: Roll out your clay into flat strips. Before you form them into rings, press dried flowers or leaves into the clay with a rolling pin. The petals will leave a beautiful, intricate impression. Carefully lift the flower away, then shape the strip into a ring, joining the ends securely. Once baked, the impression can be highlighted with a tiny bit of acrylic paint if you want to make the details pop, or left raw for a subtle, minimalist look.
