Napkins – often an overlooked detail, yet they hold incredible power to transform your table. Whether you’re running a hotel or restaurant, hosting a grand dinner party or curating a special event, a thoughtfully styled napkin sets the tone, adds a touch of elegance, and leaves a lasting impression. For hotels, caterers, and fine dining establishments, napkins aren’t just functional – they are part of the storytelling and guest experience.
At MY DRAP, we believe in effortless sophistication. With table linens designed for both everyday use and luxury hospitality, our napkins combine luxury with practicality. Follow our step-by-step guide styled from one of our luxurious, 100% biodegradable cotton Dinner Napkins.
1 – Place the napkin in front of you, with the pattern facing upwards. Fold in half, joining the lower corners with the upper ones.
2 – Fold again in half joining the corners of the left end to the corners on the right. You should now have a large square.
3 – Rotate the napkin counter-clockwise 45 degrees. Make sure the open sides are opening on the left. There are now 4 layers. Working only the first layer, join the top corner to the bottom corner.
4 – Take the top corner of the second layer and tuck it partly inside the fold of the first fold.
5 – Back to the first layer, take the bottom corner and fold it back tucking it between the first and second layers.
6 – Take the top edge of the second layer and overlap the first layer.
7 – Take the right corner and fold behind.
8 – Repeat the same with the left corner.
9 – Place it it the center of your plate and add your cutlery. PRO IDEA: Instead add a menu, flowers, or tie with jute rope.
Elevating your table doesn’t have to be complicated. With these three simple folds and the beauty of MY DRAP napkins, you can effortlessly create stunning place settings that will delight your guests and make every meal feel like a special occasion.
