How to Fold a Rose Napkin

Monday, April 14, 2014

I just loved these rose napkins so much, I had to share with you how to do fold them!  It's so easy and once you done it once, you've got it! This isn't a really wordy post, so be prepared for a lot of how to pictures!:)


You could put these napkins on the center of a place setting, in a basket, or as a table runner like I did for here.....


Get your folding fingers ready, here we go:
You start with a square napkin....


Then you fold it into a triangle.  This napkin wasn't completely square but you want to get it as close as you can to a triangle.


 Then you want to start rolling the napkin from the bottom of the triangle up.


Stop rolling about right here and flip the napkin over. 


Then at one end start rolling a tight roll across the napkin...


Keep rolling till you get to the end of the napkin.....


till about here....


Then you want to tuck the other end of the napkin into the roll....


It should look something like this......


Then stand the napkin up with rolled side down.....


Take both ends of the napkin and pull down to form the leaves of the rose......


Should look like this.....


 Flip it over and there you go!! It seems like a lot of steps but once you get the hang of it, they are a lot of fun to do!!


I love the little touches you can do in decorating a table!  These roses are an inexpensive way to make a table special for any occasion or just dinner!  Enjoy!

Are you getting ready for Easter? I'm so behind, I typically have outfits bought for the boys and everything ready! One thing I did was make was some Easter baskets.  It's going to be a busy week but I hope to share with you their baskets.  And if I have time I want to give you a peak into the boys room too!  More to come of this Little House of mine! 
Happy Monday!
