DIFFERENT TYPES OF TABLE NAPKINS FOLDS

1. THE PYRAMID NAPKIN FOLDS

This classy napkin folding technique is simple, fast, and can be made easily with
most napkins. If the napkin being used is thin and flops easily then iron it with
light starch prior to folding and it will turn out perfectly!

2. THE ROSEBUD NAPKIN FOLD

This sophisticated cloth napkin design benefits from stiff material or light starch. A
hot iron will also make it easier to be exact.

3. THE ROSE NAPKIN FOLD

Despite looking fairly elaborate, this fold is an easy one, and it can be done with
almost any variety of napkin. Display small bowl or glasses on top of these, or use
them as novelty cocktail napkins.

4. THE SAIL NAPKIN FOLD

This is one of the simplest standing napkin designs there are, but you will still need
a stiff napkin if you expect it to stand without flopping over.
5. THE SHIRT NAPKIN FOLD

This is a neat fold to have sitting on your guests dinner plates, and its pretty
easy assuming that you have an iron.

6. THE STANDING FAN NAPKIN FOLD

Elegant and decorative, this is a classic napkin folding technique. As usual, and
iron helps but is not necessary.

7. THE BIRD OF PARADISE NAPKIN FOLD

This is a classic and classy napkin folding technique that requires a stiff napkin. If
you don’t have any dinner napkins made of stiff linen then a light starching
should fix you right up.

8. THE BISHOP’S HAT NAPKIN FOLD

This is a classic dinner napkin fold, but it can be difficult to line up the corners in
the cap. Some starch and an iron make it easier to be precise while folding this
one. ….and yes I know it’s not sitting in the center of the plate, next time I’ll stay
out of the cooking wine. I promise.
9. THE CROWN NAPKIN FOLD

This napkin folding design just doesn’t work well without a little starch in the
cloth, if it’s sagging it’s ugly so take your time and get it right.

10. THE DIAMOND NAPKIN FOLD

Got some really limp napkins and want something nice to make without
eating up too much time? Then this one’s for you, if you’re using thick/stiff
napkins then an iron will help.

11. THE CONE NAPKIN FOLD

This nice napkin design originated from the napkin-worshiping Indians native
to Guam called the dirty-wipey-nappies…or not. An iron will be helpful.

12. THE NECKTIE NAPKIN FOLD

Now your guests can wipe food off of their expensive ties with…inexpensive
ties! This one easier with limp napkins, but if you only have stiffies then an
iron will make this simple to do. Remember that the larger the napkin is, the
longer the tie will be.

13. THE FRENCH NAPKIN FOLD

The French fold is a nice simple napkin fold that requires no special skills or
tools (well hands are helpful).
14. THE ARROW NAPKIN FOLD

This method of folding napkins is very simple and can be done with almost
any napkin without a need for starch. It adds a flowing, elegant look to
your table.

15.BOW TIE NAPKIN FOLS

For this fold you will need a square napkin. Iron to no wrinkles, but
starching is not necessary, although you can apply a light spray if you
desire . Some people like to iron after each fold on this one, but I don’t
find it necessary.
