This year has been really hectic. I feel like I'm always playing catch-up. So, I was looking forward to November when I can slow down a bit and settle in. The weather is getting colder. I have the fire going with a nice cup of coffee. I thought this month's scroll saw challenge could be about coziness. It's a bit of an abstract idea since "Cozy" means different things to different people. But I think we're up for the challenge. Post a scroll saw project that means Cozy in your mind. Maybe it's a trivet for your favorite tea kettle. Napkin holders for your Thanksgiving table. A yarn bowl made for the knitter in your life. Maybe a scenic cutting of snow falling on the mountains or an old farm truck driving down a country road. I'd love to see what you come up with. When you post, tell us a little bit about it. I love the stories that go along with the projects.

Hi everyone. I remember someone putting a video on showing how to fold the napkin for the napkin holder. Would anyone happen to have that video. Thanks Ralph.

Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone had the file for the napkin holders we did a while back. I need to repair two of them. I need two new center parts. Thanks.

Thanks everyone for all the info. I was able to find the part that I needed to repair two of my napkin holders.

Just finished this one up, I have had the turkey pattern for a cuple of years found it on the internet and mounted the bird to a base. Made of cherry with BLO finish, topped with satin spray lacquer.

My wife wanted a "Bless this home" sign and I could not find on we both liked. I found this pattern for a napkin holder that I changed to a shelf sitter. 5/8" Red Oak and a 3/8" thick Purpleheart for the cross. I thought about putting a painted backer and still might.

Nice engineering to change from a napkin holder. I prefer shelf sitters without backers. Your's looks perfect as is in my opinion.

My little contribution for Christmas Dinner. Spent Christmas at my daughter's. It was great first time in about five years. She asked me to cut some napkin rings for the dinner. So at her request I did Mr and Mrs Kringle. Which is a Diana Thompson pattern. I cut them sanded them but they had to paint them. I am just to shakey anymore.

I made a couple of napkin holders for my daughters. The teapot pattern is by Sue Mey and the wood is Blackheart Sassafras and the Honeycomb Bee is by Sheila Landry and the wood is pine. Oh and there is a small plaque to go with it. Marg

I think the 3D cutting is probably the harded cutting for a scroll saw. I like to do it. I just finished cutting 4 each of MR and MS Kringle napkin rings. I cut them in blanks of 1.5" BB plywood. Each one tool me an average of 40 minutes to cut. It really worked my saw. Of the blades I have I found the #5 Pegas Skip worked the best... Used about 3 blades per piece. Maybe a #7 blade would have been better, not sure.

Posted my rough idea for a napkin holder for my daughter-in-laws baby shower a couple months ago. Of course it got crazy and I never got to it. Shower was today so finally got on the ball and got it done. Used 1/2 inch oak and happily was able to get a tight fit so the base and napkin holders didn’t need glue. Wanted it so it could be taken apart then used as a chain/necklace holder when she gets older. I’m hoping to be able to venture into boxes by the time she’s older to make a base with a drawer for rings and earrings.

OK what do you say we make a list of some ideas for napkin holders such as what has been shown so far and maybe our pattern makers can do something with them. Here is what started it all. http://www.scrollsawvillage.com/forums/topic/32348-napkin-holder/ My ideas are not many. My ideas are birds like Turkey or the bird with the large fan like spread, Peafowl. The idea of doing a dress with a gal somehow is good. Upside down umbrella a flower a butterfly basically anything that can fan out

This is a Steve Good Pattern for a Woven Basket with a few changes. Firstly I enlarged to 6 inches in order to incorporate a 5 inch cocktail napkin. Used on 4 layers instead of 8. Top and bottom 1/4 walnut. Boss approved.
-
Someone seen the others I made and wanted one.1/4" ply & Oak base with felt stick on pads.and sprayed with semi gloss.

Just because I wanted to see if my pattern worked, I did this in ½" mdf on my pin-end saw. I'm quicker on that than on my Axminster. LOL It would definitely need painting ( Matt Black I think) and for me it's perhaps a little 'plain' in it's outline, but hey ho it's a start and I already have dozens of thoughts about what I could make into a napkin holder as there are thousands of vector graphics out there. !!!!

We are having a dinner next week for Valentines so I made one for the party. I must admit I have sinned. I had a friend with a laser cut me a bunch of the wheels for they would be perfect. The pattern and the rest I did my self. I found the napkins at the $ store. Takes 3 packs. I just love the ideas that come from the village.

Well I was able to change some of these patterns around a little bit. I interchanged some of the bodies. I used the top part of one and drew the bottom part from another one. The red one is normal size napkins and the yellow one is with the cocktail/beverage napkins which are only 5 x 5. I'm messing around with another one now to. Have to get some fancy napkins for that one.
