I told my friend Mary I was organizing my linens and such today as a way to wind down and think. I haven't heard back from her via e-mail yet, but I bet she...laughed. :)
Yes indeed, organizing the details of your home can be a meditative act. Or as Gunilla Norris once said: "Prayer and housekeeping; they go together."
How do you organize your napkin rings? (You do use pretty cloth napkins and not those scratchy paper things that plug our landfills, right?! Right, I knew you did. :)
I personally think napkin rings are so pretty that they qualify as "art" so I don't like to keep them hidden away in a drawer. Instead, I got out my big clear glass lemonade jar to store them in. I used some sheer shimmery white 1/2" wide ribbon to lace the ribbon through four napkin rings (a matching set), and I tied a bow to keep them together so it would be easy to find the ones I needed when I set the table. Then I simply tossed all the be-ribboned sets into the clear glass lemonade jar and put it on top my fridge.
I'd love to hear how you creatively store your napkin rings. Leave me a comment below please, and let me know!
