Introduction: Fancy Dinner Napkins
If you are planning a formal occasion and plan on decorating the dinner table, here are two variations on folding cloth napkins into either a "V-fold" or a elegant rose.
Step 1: Napkin 1 - "V Fold"
Have the napkin with the seam side facing upwards.
Step 2:
Fold the napkin corner to corner from the six o'clock to the twelve o'clock position.
Step 3:
Fold the bottom left and right corners of the triangle to the top-center point.
Step 4:
Flip the napkin over with the folded-in corners facing downward at the six o'clock position.
Step 5:
Fold the bottom at the six o’clock position to the twelve o’clock position.
Step 6:
Fold the corners from the three o’clock position over to the nine o’clock position.
Step 7:
Place the napkin with longest side of the fold facing down. You should have the two tails facing away from you.
Step 8: Napkin 2: Rose
Have the napkin with the seam side facing upwards.
Step 9:
Fold corner to corner from the six o'clock position to the twelve o'clock position.
Step 10:
Begin to roll the bottom of the triangle upwards until it is approximately four inches from the top point.
Step 11:
Rotate 90 degrees and begin to roll upwards from the bottom point of the roll to the top point.
Step 12:
Tuck the tail end of your created roll into the bottom of the rose so that it doesn't unravel.
Step 13:
Flip the rose over and fold over the "petal" of the rose. It should then stand upright.
