Napkin Folding

There are many different ways to fold a napkin.  You can simply do a search on the Internet to find them.  That is how I came across this one.  Do not be intimidated.  This one is simple and does not require starch.  After doing one or two of them, it actually became fun.  
 
1.  Lay napkin out in a diamond shape and smooth it out.
2.  Fold diamond in half towards you.
 3.  Fold left side down.
 4.  Then right side.  Match up the corners as best as you can.
 5.  Holding the top and bottom corners, carefully flip the napkin over. 
The open edges should now be facing away from you. 
Make sure all corners are together.
 6.  Fold diamond in half again.  This time away from you.
 7.  Take the left and right corners and lift napkin up and towards you. 
Simply adjust the distance to stabilize the napkin.
 This is the front view.
Now if the material in your napkin is flimsy, you may need to use some starch. 
This was a simple fold to do and added an elegant touch to the table.
