Fold Beautiful Napkins!

Do you want to make a good impression on your guest? If you do, I will inform you on how to fold elegant table napkins for your dinner table to make your company stare in awe at your table settings. A decorative napkin fold adds elegance and makes a beautiful statement for your Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Years Holiday meal or party events. You can also add Charming Napkin Rings suitable for the occasion if you wish.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Table napkins suitable for any festive occasion for all guests coming to celebrate who are invited to your home.
  • Table napkin rings for the napkins that are suitable to give an elegant look for your napkin and table settings.
  1. Step 1

    * To make this style: Napkin Pockets!
    Fold napkin four inches from the top and six inches from the bottom so the bottom overlaps the top. Flip and fold in 1/3 from sides so they overlap. Flip back and place special holiday cards inside.
    Tip: If it's for a New Years Party place noise makers inside.

  2. Step 2

    *To make a fan-like table napkin!
    Fold napkin in half lengthwise, with fold on left. Starting at bottom, accordion pleat 2/3 of the way up. Fold in half with pleats on outside. Fold top left corner down, and tuck under pleats. Last of all, just fan it out! Attack napkin rings suitable for the occasion.

  3. Step 3

    *To make a diamond fold napkin:
    Fold napkin in half twice. Rotate 1/8 clockwise to form a diamond. Fold the right and left corner in so they line up in the middle. Flip and slide a suitable napkin ring down to the point!
    *Tip: Have kids make fall napkins for Thanksgiving out of colored paper!

  4. Step 4

    Attach suitable napkins and rings for any holiday or party occasion. Buy enough for the number of people you have invited and add a few more for unexpected quests.

Tips & Warnings
  • Turn silk flowers into napkin rings. Just form wired stems into a circle around a paper towel tube! Attach silk flowers, then add to napkin. Wow!
  • What an idea, less expensive and more practical.
  • Also buy leaves for fall Thanksgiving napkins, Poinsettias stems for Christmas napkins or other kinds of flowers which are suitable for any occasion that you are hosting.
  • You might want to use artificial flowers for your napkins because lots of people are allergic to flowers and yes you can buy artificial leaves, too.
  • You might want to watch the metal napkins rings as well for someone might be also allergic to certain metals.
