Fold a fancy napkin, or thirteen

napkin foldOK, you already know how to set a bang-up place setting. You can also give that dining table a special touch that your guests will notice if you learn how to fold your napkins restaurant-style. Or, dining-with-the-rich style.

Or any one of thirteen styles that About gives photo tutorials on how to fold. Heck, that is so many that you could have each place setting sport a unique napkin fold.

But let's not get carried away. From the simple scarf fold or traditional fold, to the super-fancy Three Point "Hat" Fold, you can take you pick. You are sure to find one that suits your fancy.

For the picture I took to go with this post, I chose to try the Goblet Fan Fold. The instructions were easy and clear, and I was happy with my results, even if my napkins are a bit floppy.

How do you fold your napkins to give your table that special touch?
