Christmas Tree Napkin Fold
Materials:
- crisp, square napkin (preferably cotton or linen since these hold shape better and longer)
- pressing iron
Directions:
- Press your napkins well. This is optional but it helps making the fabric crispier which in return will help with holding the tree shape later.
- Fold up the napkin in half, making sure the ends are smooth and are lining up.
- Fold in half again, to the right, making sure corners are smooth and lining up.
- Spin the napkin so the folded corner points away from you.
- Fold up each corner, then flip the napkin over.
- Fold outer corners to opposite sides, making sure the tops are parallel to you.
- Flip back again and fold up the corners again, tucking each under the one above them.

You lost me at the first step. Do you fold so that it forms a triangle or do you fold to get a rectangle?
You really need pictures of each step or more detailed directions.
I tried both ways and could not follow your directions!
Sorry–it looks so nice!
Hi, Jane. There’s a video included. I’m sorry but I cannot explain it better than through a video recording.
