These simply holiday napkin paper folds will make your dinner table look instantly festive. These easy designs are made with paper napkins, but cloth napkins will work just as well. Recruit the kids and put those little hands to good use!

Poinsettia Napkin Fold

A poinsettia napkin fold adds a seasonal touch to your holiday table. Look for napkins in shades of red or pink to make the flower look more realistic -- or top a white napkin with a sparkly accessory in the centre.

 

How to Make a Poinsettia Fold


 

1. Start with a napkin completely unfolded.
2. Make a square.
3. Fold each corner down toward the center.
4. Turn the napkin over. Fold each corner down toward the center.
5. Reach under each corner and gently pull the loose section out and up to form the leaf.
6. Crease the corner tip of each leaf to add dimension.
7. Place a decorative embellishment in the centre of the flower, if you’d like.


Double Star Napkin Fold

Ideal for holiday celebrations of all types, this festive star will perk up your place settings.


How to Make a Double Star Napkin Fold


 

1. Start with a dinner napkin completely unfolded.
2. Fold the top and bottom sections to the center to form a long rectangle.
3. Fold the napkin in half again horizontally.
4. Fold the napkin accordion-style into eight equal sections. Press firmly.
5. Gather the accordion folds together again and hold between your forefinger and thumb. (You can use a paperclip to secure the base of star together for extra stability.)
6. Leave the double layers open at the top with the raw edges facing away from you.
7. There should be four folds facing you. Firmly pull down the sections between the folds. Do this for a total of three folds.
8. Turn the napkin around so the raw edges are facing you. There should be three folds facing you.
9. Beginning at one end, firmly pull down the sections between the raw edge and fold continuing to the other edge. Do this for a total of four folds.
10. Let the napkin unfold to create a double star.
