DIY Bow-Tie Napkins

Hosting a Mother's Day Brunch?  Use this adorable napkin fold to add a little pizazz to your table setting.


For this project, we used the Lavender Napkin.

  1. Beginning with the napkin face down, fold the left and right edges to meet in the middle.
  2. Next, fold the left and right edges in again to meet in the middle.
  3. Then, fold the napkin into thirds using the top and bottom edges
  4. Finally, place a ribbon around the middle of the napkin, pulling it tight and securing to create the bow-tie.
  5. Fluff, and enjoy!
