Pro Napkin Folding Tips

Here’s what to do…
1. Lay napkin out flat, then fold in half into a triangle shape. (1 corner to opposite corner)
2. Now begin rolling the flat side up towards the point.
3. Stop rolling when you have about 4 – 5 inches left to go.
4. Then turn the napkin (with the point at the right) and begin rolling one end towards the other.
5. Stop again when you have about 4 – 5 inches left to go.
6. Tuck the end tightly into the front of the roll.
7. Then separate the two tails.
8. Pull down on the two tails.
9. Finally, flip the napkin over to reveal your beautiful rose!
