A Napkin Holder for Note Paper
Text in Swedish below
I found a napkin holder at a junk sale – quite a regular model that one sees around all of the time. I also have a pile of paper from my days working at a used bookstore and printing shop which I use for making notes. To make it easier to keep my paper pile in order and to make it nicer to have on my work table, a combination of these two items seems to be in order.
The width of my notepaper fits the holder but I have to cut it with a sharp paper knife lengthwise. I cut a few sheets at a time so that it doesn’t fray at the edges. (see my previous blog entry, The Written Word in the Hand-made Notebook).

Check with your local printer as to whether they have leftover paper and perhaps you’ll think of other solutions?
Tin and metal obviously matches my reused tin cans!

En servetthållare för anteckningslappar
Jag fann en servetthållare på en loppis, en vanligt förekommande modell. Jag har även en bunt papper från mina dagar i ett antikvariat/tryckeri som jag använder till anteckningar. För att göra det enklare att hålla ordning på pappersbunten och för att göra den vackrare att ha framme på skrivbordet tycks en kombination vara på sin plats.
Pappersbunten passar bra i hållaren på bredden men jag skär till den på höjden med en vass mattkniv. Jag skär några blad i taget så att de inte rispas upp i kanterna (se mitt tidigare inlägg The Written Word in the Hand-made Notebook).
Hör med ditt lokala tryckeri om de har spillpapper över och kanske kommer du på en annan möjlig kombination?
Plåtmaterialet matchar ju mina återvunna konserveringsburkar!
