These are super cute and could be used for a baby shower, a birthday, mothers brunch, Easter dinner and so many other occasions. I used white utensils, pink napkins and gold curling ribbon because those are her colours but you can use any you would like.
The bigger the napkin the bigger the butterfly, also if you used those tiny elastics on the utensils first it would make life so much easier but, there are children going to be attending the baby shower so I don't want to risk the chocking hazard.
Supplies:
Curling ribbon
Scissors
Tiny Elastics (if you are using them)
Napkins
utensils
Step 1:
Gather your supplies
Step 2:
Cut your ribbon the desired length.
Step 3:
Stack your utensils
I found knife, fork, spoon order stacked the best.
Fold your napkin like a fan
This gets a little tricky and where the elastics come in handy for hold them today while you tie.
Hold you napkin in the over top of the utensils all in one hand, while wrapping the ribbon around both the stack and the napkin then knot. Make sure you not is at the top of the center crease.
Trim the ribbon ends but not too much these are the antenna for your butterfly
Curl just the top of each ribbon end.
Step 7:
I fluff out my ends to make it look more like a butterfly than a bow tie, but that's all up to you and your likes
And you are done, now I have 40 more to make!! Enjoy!!!
