The Silverware Napkin Roll

If you’re going on a picnic or


need your silverware to be portable, then a silverware roll is the
way to go. You can load them up and pack them away for later and
they keep your silverware nice and clean. This is as simple as it
gets, folks.
1. Lay the napkin face-down in
front of you.

2. Fold the napkin in half


diagonally.
3. Orient the napkin so the
longest side is toward you, and then place the silverware on the
inner-edge of the long side.

4. Fold both sides in and over


the silverware. Do not crease.
5. Tightly roll the silverware
into the napkin.

6. There you are, easy peazy


mac and cheezy!
The Standing Fan Napkin Fold

Elegant and decorative, this is a


classic napkin folding technique. As usual, and iron helps but is not
necessary.

1. Lay the napkin face-down in


front of you.
2. Fold the napkin in half and
orient the open end towards you.

3. Fold the napkin like an


accordion starting at either narrow end. Leave one end with 2-3
inches of unfolded napkin to support the standing fan.
4. Fold the napkin in half with
the accordion folds on the outside.
5. Grasp the unfolded corners
where they meet on the open end and fold them in diagonally,
tucking them under the accordion folds.
6. Open it and stand it up. A
beautiful fan for a beautiful dinner.
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.

1. Lay the napkin face-down in


front of you.
2. Fold the napkin in half and
orient the open end toward you.

3. Fold the napkin into


quarters.
4. Fold the top-most layer of
the napkin in half diagonally – up and to the left.

5. Fold the next layer of napkin


diagonally up and to the left, stopping slightly before the last fold to
create an even, staggered effect.
6. Repeat by folding up the
next layer of napkin to a point just before the last one.

7. And one last time with one


last layer. Keep them as uniform as you can.
8. Now fold both sides of the
napkin under and in to create an even, staggered diamond effect on
the napkin. Press it down as flat as possible and you’re ready for
guests within 60 seconds!
The Pyramid Napkin Fold

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!
1. Lay the napkin face down in
front of you.

2. Fold the napkin in half


diagonally.
3. 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
