Hi, I'm Stephanie Barnett. On behalf of Expert Village I'm here to show you how to make seasonal napkin ring holders. Oooh, look at winter. These are the tools that you're going to need for this step. You're going to need your tubing, a pencil, a retractable knife, ruler and your cutting board. First I want you to take your tubing and your ruler and measure out two inches from the edge. It can be a little tricky but I know you can do this. You're going to make lines all the way around. Then I want you to play connect the dots. Now when you play connect the dots with these lines it doesn't matter if it's not exact. Because once we put the ribbon around the tubing, it won't matter so just connect them all the way around. I want you to get your retractable knife, open it up, poke it through carefully and watch your fingers and I just want you to saw down along the line. You could use scissors for this step but you're going to need to poke through on the line first and then put the scissors through and then you're done.
