Christmas Table

Every season and holiday deserve their very own table settings.

This year, we'll be folding napkins to look like trees!

Cast of Characters:











  • Tablecloth
  • Placemats (I always get mine at The Christmas Tree Shop, like $1.25/placemat.)
  • Napkins
  • Centerpiece

Spread the tablecloth out, and put the placements down. 





















Let's make some tree napkins!




















Fold in half and iron.





















Turn so that the crease is on the left. Fold each corner to the center.




















And iron (it keeps it folded better)




















Pretty.




















Fold both flaps to center.




















Iron.




















Fold between the two points, see below.
















Fold top (next to triangle) into the middle.




















And repeat on the other side.
















Use something to pin the top together (you'll need it to keep it together)
I used a bell, a safety pin and an ugly Walmart Christmas earing...
















Put safety pin through the top of the bell. Put through the top of the triangle tree.
















Put the earing on too, and stand up the napkin by spreading the triangles out.
















Complete.




















Also, these are cute.
