Save and Splurge Mondays! - DIY Monogram Napkins

I just love making pretty things, almost as much as a like saving money.  BUT, when you can do both at the same time.....WELL, winner winner chicken dinner.  Speaking of dinner.  I wanted to share with you my dinner table complete with DIY monogram napkins I made for myself.  This monday, instead of showing you just furniture I decided to show you a save and splurge at the dinner table!  Bon Appetite and happy crafting!

My inspiration design..... BEAUTIFUL isn't it!  I just love the sharp contrast of the crisp white linen with the bold graphic monogram.  These are from http://www.leontinelinens.com and will run you between $135 - $145 depending on size and style.  Love them, BUT.... that's a grocery bill right there!

Now here is my version.  Not hand stitched, but I think it looks pretty good.  What do you think?  I bought the white napkins from Walmart for $1.97 per pair, used iron on transfer paper and Viola!  My own monogram napkins for less than 5 BUCKS!!!!  


This is what it looked like on my tablescape.  To view my quick tutorial on making your own, click the pictures below or my link to the right. YouTube channel "That's Your Q"- DIY Monogram Napkins
