White Picket Fence Napkin Rings


     These cute little picket fences will dress up a summer picnic table or a elegant tea party! They are fun to make and a great project to have your kids help with.

Here's what you'll need:

Popsicle sticks or 1/4" wide craft sticks.
20 gage wire.
Wire cutters.
Needle nose pliers.
White spray acrylic paint.

Cut craft sticks to approximately 1/4" wide and 2 1/4" long. You'll need 8 pickets for each ring
Cut a point on one end.
Take two pieces of wire side by side and twist together two times. Add a picket with the wire about 1/2" down from the top and twist two more times. Repeat this process with two more pieces of wire about 1/2" from the bottom of the pickets.
Continue to add pickets which should be about 1/2" apart. We used eight pickets for each ring.
Terminate the wire by securing them to the first picket.
Trim the wire ends making sure that they don't catch on your napkins.
Spray paint and let dry.

Make enough for every place setting. They are so fun and easy to make you can write your guests names on them and let them take them home with them.

We hope you liked this project. If you build it and your friends ask where you got such a clever idea, please tell them that you got it at RunnerDuck.com.
