Serviette/napkin Folding, Fleur De Lis In A Glass Version3

Total Time: 2 mins Preparation Time: 2 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 2
  • 1 paper, serviette (large)
  • 1 cloth, serviette (large)

Recipe

  • 1 take your square napkin, lay it totally flat before you, then fold it in half horizontally.
  • 2 fold again, this time vertically so that you have before you a square a quarter the size of your original square.
  • 3 only one of the 4 corners will have 4 open or loose edges. rotate the square before you so that it looks like a diamond with the four open edges pointing to the top.
  • 4 we will call the points on your diamond shape east, west, south and the open edged bit, north.
  • 5 starting at the east point, accordion fold the serviette until you are at the west point. keep a firm hold on the east/west points once the accordion fold is complete, and you will see that you have a bigger fan at the top (the top has 4 open points of the serviette) and a smaller fan at the bottom.
  • 6 take the bottom point of the bottom fan and curl it up upon itself like a snail shell until you are almost at the east/west points in your other fingers. the snail shell curl will anchor the fan in the glass and help it to keep its shape.
  • 7 place the fan into a or water glass and you will have a small standing fan in a semi fleur de lis style but with smaller side points.
  • 8 arrange the pleats to that they are even and neat.
