Rotate the napkin so the open end faces away from you. 4. Fold the right end up to meet the far corner, ensuring the edge of this new fold lays on the centerline as shown. 5. Repeat the last step with the left side, folding the left tip up to the far corner, creating a diamond shape with a seam running down the center. 6. Turn the napkin over, keeping the open end facing away from you. 7. Fold the napkin in half by bringing the farthest point of the diamond up and back to the nearest point. 8. Turn the napkin over again, this time keeping the open end facing towards you. 9. Fold the napkin along the center seam and you have a neat, sturdy pyramid. If your napkin won’t stand neatly then you may need a little starch. CANDLE NAPKIN FOLDING 1. Lay the napkin face down in front of you. 2. Fold the napkin in half diagonally. 3. Orient the napkin so the open ends point away from you. 4. Fold the long side up just about an inch. Press this fold down well or it will interfere with the next step. 5. Turn it around. Starting at either end, tightly roll the napkin into a cylinder. Take care to roll it straight so it will stand solidly. 6. Tuck the end of the roll into the base on the backside and stand it up. BIRDS OF PARADISE NAPKIN FOLDING 1. Lay the napkin face down in front of you. 2. Fold the napkin in half. 3. Fold the napkin in quarters. 4. Fold the napkin in half diagonally, creating a triangle. 5. Orient the triangle so the open tip is facing away from you. 6. Fold the right corner diagonally towards you – laying it down along the centerline of the triangle, making a new tip pointing towards you. An iron can make this important fold a whole lot easier. 7. Do the same with the left corner, fold it diagonally toward you and press it down next to the previous fold. 8. Fold the two "wings" that you just made in folds 6 and 7 under so that you have your original triangle shape back. Once again an iron can make a world of difference. 9. Fold the triangle in half by bringing the center seam towards you and allowing the ends to fall. 10. While holding the base firmly to keep your folds together, pull up the four ‘flaps’ created by the napkin’s corners.
