"Festive napkin rings" is really an umbrella term for a handful of different holidays, and this roundup treats it that way on purpose. Instead of pretending Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter napkin rings are one single style, we pulled real, currently published laser-cut projects from Atomm's community and grouped them by the occasion they were actually designed for.
Every design below is a free, editable project you can open in xTool Creative Space or Design Space, resize to fit your napkins, and cut in wood, acrylic, or cardstock. No invented specs, no stock photos — just real files with real cover images and real download links.
Key Takeaways
- This list covers 39 real napkin ring and napkin holder projects across Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, and general/other-occasion designs.
- Most designs are laser-cut wood or acrylic, sized to slip around a rolled napkin or hold a folded one upright.
- Reindeer, snowflakes, turkeys, and bunnies are the most common recurring motifs across the seasonal sections.
- Several projects are personalizable with names, letters, or place-card text for a set-the-table touch.
- Every project links straight to its real Atomm page so you can preview and download the actual file.

Frequently Asked Questions
What material works best for laser-cut napkin rings?
Thin plywood (1/8″ to 1/4″) and acrylic are the most common choices for the designs above, since both cut cleanly and hold a napkin's weight without warping. Cardstock or felt also work for one-time or single-holiday use.
Can I resize these napkin ring files for cloth vs. paper napkins?
Yes. Every project opens as an editable file, so you can widen or narrow the ring band depending on whether you're using thick cloth napkins or thinner paper ones before sending it to the laser.
Do I need a specific laser cutter to use these designs?
No. These are standard SVG/DXF-style project files that open in most laser software, including xTool's Creative Space and Design Space. Check your own machine's bed size against the design dimensions first.
Are Christmas designs reusable for other winter occasions?
Many of them are. Snowflake and reindeer-style holders in the Christmas section skew general enough for New Year's or winter dinners, not just Christmas Day specifically.
Which section has the most personalization options?
The Christmas section has the most name- and letter-personalizable designs, including reindeer and Santa-hat holders that can carry a guest's name as a built-in place card.
Is there a single collection page for all of these?
Not one combined page, since the projects span separate Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter collections on Atomm. The Thanksgiving and Easter collections linked above are good starting points for browsing more from each theme.
