How to Fold Cloth Napkins

Looking for a fun addition to your Thanksgiving table decor? Today I’ve got a fun step by step tutorial showing how to fold cloth napkins and its so easy anyone can do it! These napkins add a bit of class to any tablescape…and did I mention they are easy?

Supplies:

• cloth napkins
• iron
• ironing board
• starch (optional)

First you’ll want to iron the cloth napkin to eliminate any wrinkles. This is a great time to add starch. Once you’ve got them ironed you’ll fold over in half, then in half again creating a smaller square. Press with iron.


Now you’ll peel back the top layer in a diagonal fashion starting at the corner of your square. Press. Peel back the next layer and “tuck” under the first diagonal layer. Press.
Repeat with the third layer. Press.

Now you’ll fold the sides to the back and iron.

And that’s it! Now you have a perfectly functional and lovely folded cloth napkin. We used these in our thanksgiving tablescape last year. 

We hope you have safe and happy holidays!
