Wrap your Silverware in Doilies! adds a bit of Posh to any event!

Plastic "silverware" gets dressed up for any event with a bit of ribbon and doilies (of course!).

I have two techniques here - one is the simple wrap and the other is the "fan fold".
Both are super easy - and really dress up a buffet table.

These are samples of the roll up - each fastened with different material.
From left to right:

• Wide ribbon (using double sided tape)
• Black Tulle cut to ribbon width
• Blue ribbon 1/4 inch width
• Gold fabric covered elastic

These are samples of the "fan fold" - each fastened with different material.
From left to right:

• Wide ribbon (using double sided tape)
• White Tulle cut to ribbon width
• Blue ribbon 1/4 inch width
• Sheer pink ribbon with sequins 

I like the fan - it gives the set a bit more polish...

This is very easy to accomplish - just fold the doily in 1/4 folds across the entire doily.
Nest the silverware in center and tie!

For those of you who need a visual... please follow along:

3 pc set of "silverware"
1 6" inch paper doily
1 pc of ribbon/lace/twine etc - 12 inches long

Turn doily over - so it is "good side" facing down/

Fold exactly (more or less) in half.

Fold back one side to create an approximately 1/4 "fold".

Repeat until one side is completely folded.

Flip over and fold the other side the same way.

Now doily is folded into one "strip" approximately 1/4 to 1/2 wide.

Release and doily will have fan folds.

Nestle the silverware in center fold.

Pinch doily together and add ribbon.

Voila! so pretty!
