Wine drip collar

The video is hosted on YouTube: it only loads when you press Play.

The Bacchus collar, also called a "drip catcher" or "drip collar", is the metal ring you put around the neck of a wine bottle so that the last drops running down the neck don't stain the tablecloth. Here is the origami version, quick and easy to make from a paper napkin (about 30 to 35 cm square when unfolded). This fold, which will come in very handy on festive tables, is by Maarten van Gelder. Yes, I know!!! It's not a wine bottle in the video and in the photo, I didn't have one to hand!!!

What next?
