Creative Napkin Folding: The Lily
Surprise your guests with this simple and attractive napkin folding technique.
Step 1: Put a square napkin facedown on a flat surface.
Step 2: Fold one corner of the napkin to meet the furthest corner, creating an isosceles triangle. Turn the napkin so that the longest side of the triangle is nearest to you.
Step 3: Next, bring each of the bottom triangle corners up to meet in the top corner of the isosceles triangle, so that the two corner ends now touch the top corner of the triangle. Now you have created a diamond shape.
Step 4: Fold the bottom corner of the diamond two-thirds of to the way to the top of the diamond.
Step 5: Flip over the napkin, carefully holding all of the folds in place.
Step 6: Now, taking the bottom left-hand portion of the napkin, roll the napkin from left to right, creating a cylinder until you notice that the right-hand portion may tuck into the fold you created.
Step 7: Tuck the right-hand portion of the napkin into the fold, and you will find that the base of the napkin will stand on its own.
Step 8: Stand the napkin upright on its base. You will see three corners of the napkin at the top of your construction. Gently pull down the left and right points so that they are almost parallel to the table surface.
Congratulations, you have folded a napkin into a lily!
