A characteristic feature of our time is the absence of any framework and restrictions. You can do anything and from anything, for example, crafts from napkins. With your own hands, with minimal skills, you can create something unusual and creative yourself or with a child. First, a little about the materials.

Napkins for creativity can be very different. Paper white or colored can be used to make flowers. Very original flowers are obtained in this way, besides, they are quite simple in execution. From flowers, you can make a Christmas wreath on the door, a topiary or a whole picture, or you can simply collect them into a beautiful bouquet and put them on a table or cabinet, transforming your interior. Using paper flowers attached to a wire, you can surprise everyone with new napkin rings.

For the New Year and Christmas, I want to make the house fabulous and incredibly beautiful. And here, too, simple napkins will come to the rescue, from which you can cut snowflakes on windows, make huge snow-white flowers and arrange them in vases, hang them on a Christmas tree or strengthen them in another way. Crafts from napkins with their own hands will decorate the house for any holiday and celebration. This is a very grateful material, and even if some errors were made during the work, everything can be easily corrected.

Do-it-yourself napkin crafts are also good because you can make a masterpiece out of a very ordinary and inexpensive material. Decoupage is a very fashionable and successfully developing trend in needlework. Napkins play a major role here. There are special decoupage cards, or you can print the pictures you like, but the easiest way is to pick up napkins with the desired pattern in the store. Decoupage is a very old, one might say, ancient art, the development of which is now gaining momentum. Using this technique, you can easily transform your furniture, clocks, dishes and other interior items. Decoupage looks especially elegant in combination with a mosaic, for example, an eggshell or a relief pattern applied with special materials. Before proceeding with the decoupage of a particular surface, it must be properly prepared, cleaned, sanded, primed or leveled. It is better to make the background for gluing the picture white, and the surface on which there will be no pattern can be tinted after gluing the main motive. Next, the picture is covered with a layer of decoupage glue, polished, varnished and polished again. This continues untilthe image does not completely merge with the surface. Another product can be artificially aged by applying craquelure varnish.

Fabric napkins are also an excellent material for creativity. You can not just put them on a plate, roll them up or fold them in four, but make beautiful flowers or figurines out of them. It's also a great finger workout. Some kind of origami, only made of fabric. By the way, motifs of embroidered napkins can be used for decoupage.

Do-it-yourself napkin crafts are a quick and very pleasant way to personalize your interior. So you can save a lot of money and not buy new things, but make the old ones look different.
