How to Fold a Napkin into a Fan

Napkin folding is most appropriate for meals during holidays and other special occasions because they add an elegant touch. For everyday use, however, organizing your napkins with napkin rings or napkin holders is sufficient. Napkin folding is time-consuming, especially considering how quickly the napkins are unfolded and dirtied, so it’s a practice that you should reserve for special meals, when presentation is important. Fold the table napkin in half. You should end up with a rectangle. Looking at a vertical rectangle, starting at the bottom, accordion pleat 2/3 of the way up. Fold in half vertically with the pleating on the outside. Holding all layers of cloth, take the upper corner of the free end (part with no pleats) and tuck it diagonally under the pleats facing you. Place it standing on the table and release pleats to form the fan. The triangle will act as a stand to hold up. www.scribd.com/doc/196070751/How-to-Fold-a-Napkin-Into-a-Fan
