How to make an event memorable? I would like the celebrations that are present in the life of every person - a wedding, anniversary, christening of children - to be distinguished by their uniqueness and sophistication. And it’s not so important if you spend them at home or in a banquet hall. Much depends on the overall design. First of all, take care of a beautiful table setting. Usually these chores, as a rule, are undertaken by the restaurant staff. But a simple home-made family celebration can be made with a twist. We offer you several ways to fold a napkin beautifully. Photos will help to complete the work in stages. The main thing is to be careful and be patient.
The first way to fold napkins nicely: “Heart”
Use a napkin, spreading in front of you in one layer. Then fold the canvas in half, laying the bottom edge on the top so that the fold that is closer to you is solid. After that, take the lower right corner of the workpiece and diagonally bend over the canvas diagonally, do the same with the left corner. The parties should coincide in the middle. Now the napkin has the shape of a rhombus. Form the top edge, turning each of the two separate parts in small pieces. You need to carefully hide the extra edges underneath so that the top edge takes the shape of a heart. For reliability and fixing, you can iron the napkin folded in this way with an iron.
The second way to fold napkins nicely: “Bow Tie”
Fold the flattened blank, turning up along, then again. You will get a long and narrow cloth strip. Place both ends of it under a dessert plate and decorate in the middle with a beautiful brooch or a special napkin ring. At the same time, pulling off a napkin, beautifully drape. This version is perfect for decorating a wedding table.
The third way to fold napkins nicely: Pocket
Spread the napkin completely in front of you. Grasp the bottom edge and lay it on top. Your napkin will become double. Then lift and bend the upper blade so that the lower edge protrudes beyond the upper one. It will turn out the so-called pocket. Wrap the sides under the bottom of the product. During the romantic dinner, you can put a flower, cutlery, menu or some kind of surprise in the resulting “handbag”.
The fourth way to fold napkins nicely: “Knot”
The canvas needs to be bent in half diagonally. As a result, the napkin will take the form of a triangle. Turning the middle corner inward, fold the product with an accordion. Then, not very tightly tie the corrugated strip, placing the knot nicely. Place a flower or a decorated paper towel inside the exposition.
The fifth way to fold napkins nicely: Candle
Bend the whole workpiece in half diagonally. Lay the triangle with the long side toward you. Turn the lower edge several times with an accordion. Then, taking the right corner, twist the canvas to the left in the shape of a tube. Carefully hide the remaining end, leading up into the draped folds. Place a napkin on a plate, slightly relaxing the tube for stability.
In addition to the proposed options, there are also several other ways of how to fold napkins nicely into a napkin holder. But let's talk about this next time.
