Dress up the dinner table with napkin holders made from felt holly leaves and a jingle bell. Photocopy our leaves template, and cut out. Trace onto felt; cut out shape. Fold each leaf in half lengthwise, then steam with an iron to create creases. Thread a jingle bell onto the middle of decorative cording. Tie cord around base of leaves, positioning leaves at bell; knot. Tie cord behind folded napkin.

I,too would like to know where to purchase the plates. or something similar.
Thank you
I absolutely love the plates. Where can I buy the plates?
I am having a HUGE 350 people Christmas party and I am going to use this!! It's creative and fun and i recomend doing this!
We are having a Christmas party i am going to use them for the tables
I used this idea for our office party, and everyone liked it. Some even took their's home as a momento of the great time they had. I used ribbon instead of cord, and took the ones left over home, and used for tying colored plastic wrap around little bundles of Christmas treats for my grandchildren. I used lime and hunter green felt, and silver, red, green, and gold jingle bells. Thank you for the grand idea!!!
I am so excited about these. I'll be making some tonight for our table!
What a wonderful idea!
