"Make it Rain-Bows

Low and behold, my new favorite purchase. A set of 12 cotton, multi-colored napkins from Crate and Barrel. No two are alike, which lets the inner type A come out when I want to match my napkin and outfit. (Seriously, I do this.) AND it's way more green to be paperless.

So, how do you tie it all together and make sense of a color palette that resembles the flags of West Hollywood?

Brightly colored food and paint chip place cards. Head to your local hardware store and be as sly as possible. But grab two sets, you won't want to do this often. Match the napkin to any of the colors on the paint chip. I would suggest using the long skinny ones or the wider fat ones, shown here, so you can fold them. A silver sharpie and an ounce of patience for handwriting created a fun ambiance for a dinner as colorful and delicious as my budget for this decor!
