SERVIETTE/NAPKIN FOLDING, CANDLE IN A WINE GLASS FOLD

Steps:

• Lay your serviette out flat before you in a diamond shape.
• Take the point at South and roll it neatly completely up to the North point.
• Fold the serviette in half and place it into a wine glass.
• An optional variation would be to insert a serviette/napkin ring over the folded end before putting it into the wineglass.

SERVIETTE/NAPKIN FOLDING, CELEBRATE WITH CANDLES!

Steps:

• Lay your serviette out flat before you in a diamond shape.
• Take the corner at South and bring it up to meet the corner at North. You will have before you a triangle shape with the crease at the bottom.
• Take the two points at North and bend them forward South but only go one third of the way down the serviette. This will make a tiny triangle at the top that faces downwards.
• Fold the little triangle towards South again, only one third of the main serviette will be showing at the bottom now. Then fold the strip over again towards South so that the top now meets the bottom edge at South. (You should have folded the triangle downwards 3 times in all) This results in a long thin strip that has two little triangle points sticking out at each end.
• Take hold of the little triangle at the left end of the strip that you have and fold it under and backwards under itself so that the point sticks up (this will be your candle "flame").
• Now start to roll up the long strip, starting at the end where the left triangle has been folded backwards. Roll the strip up to the end, tucking the last part under and into the roll at the base of your candle.
• Voila ! a Candle serviette/ Napkin ! -- and how easy was that!

SERVIETTE/NAPKIN FOLDING, SYDNEY OPERA FAN IN WINE GLASS

Steps:

• Lay your serviette square out flat before you. Fold it in half horizontally.
• Take the serviette and fold it in half again vertically so that it is now a small square a quarter the size of the original square.
• Only one corner of the square will have 4 open / loose edges, rotate your square so that it is a flat diamond shape with the open corner pointing upwards. We will call this the North corner.
• Take the East corner and make an accordion fold all the way to the West corner.
• Holding it firmly, gently pull out each of the 4 loose edges at the North point, fanning them out from left to right.
• Roll up the south corner a little to help the fan to keep its shape and place in a water or wine glass.

SERVIETTE/NAPKIN FOLDING, CANDLE FAN FOLD

Steps:

• Lay your serviette out flat and square before you.
• Bring the top and bottom right corners into the top and bottom centre of the serviette so that there is a vertical line running down the middle. Repeat with the left top and bottom corners. You should have before you a tall rectangle with a vertical gap running down the middle.
• Place your finger in the very centre of the serviette where the two flaps meet each other. With your other hand take the top right flap and pull it to the right, going past the top of the rectangle so that it make a triangle shape a little like the flap on a collar. Repeat with the top point on the left side. It now looks like the collar on a shirt with rather a wide neck at the back.
• The next step involves making a mirror image of the last step at the bottom, if it's easier then carefully turn your serviette around do that the collar is at the bottom upside down and then just repeat the previous step at the top as before. Once all four flaps are completed you will have before you a rectangle that has 4 triangles radiating out from the centre a little like a windmill.
• Starting at the bottom upside down collar part, take the bottom left and right edges and roll them as tightly as you can up to the centre of the serviette.( I set a glass on mine to keep it there while I did the next step).
• Turn the entire serviette around to the that roll is at the top and the collar bit of the top half is now upside down at the bottom.
• Accordion fold the bottom bit up to the centre (it will meet the roll at the middle).
• Now gather both ends (without letting it all unfold) and the roll should be in the middle.
• Place it into an empty water or wine glass and fan out the accordion fan bits at each side. So easy!

SERVIETTE/ NAPKIN FOLDING, SET INTO A WINE GLASS

Steps:

• Lay your serviette square out flat before you.
• Begin folding accordion/pleating style from the bottom, all the way up to the top. Make each fold/ pleat about 3/4" - 1" (2 cm - 2.5cm) wide.
• Fold the pleated napkin in half.
• Place the serviette into the wine glass, folding the first inch at the base underneath to keep pleats in place.
• Unfold the pleats and shape into a fan. Interlock the two center pleats if needed to keep the fan intact.
