"Alright, so you have that sneeze or you're having that special event and you want to make sure that you're carrying a handkerchief with you but you don't know how to fold it. Let's talk about that. I'm Hazely Lopez from Hazely Academy of Refinement and Modeling, and I'm here to talk to you about how to fold a handkerchief. First I'm going to start by letting you know that this is an extra big one so that you make sure that you see it very good and very well from there. And you're going to start by laying it down. We're going to do three different types of folds, and we're actually going to be using the first one which is a "square-ended fold". This is just going to be folding to the middle, that's your first half fold, and then you're going to fold one-third of one side, and then one-third of the other side, then you're going to fold in half in here, and you have it. Of course this is the bigger version, you're going to probably be looking at a real one like this smaller. Let's take a look at the second one which is the "puff fold", and this is my favorite, it is so easy! You are basically going to grab it towards the middle and pull it up and just roll it to the middle and then you put it in your pocket. Isn't that easy? It is really easy, looks really classy as well. And then we're going to talk about the last one real quick, and this is the "multi-folded" one. Basically you're going to take one corner to the other corner, and then the other side, then the other side, then the other side, and then the other side, and the middle part. And you're going to have a multi-folded handkerchief. It can be a little bit tricky, but you'll get the hang of it. It's really simple, looks really nice, looks attractive, and basically just do your best. I'm Hazely Lopez from Hazely Academy of Refinement and Modeling, and this is how you fold your handkerchief!"
