Add a little flare to your table setting:

1. Get some complementary paper napkins that highlight your theme.
2. Arrange the napkins into a patchwork-type quilt.
3. Tape the napkins together.
4. Flip over your new personalized DIY table runner.

Great for birthday parties or anytime you need to add some color to your life.
