Steps:
Watch this quick video to see how easy it is to fold a napkin like a Christmas tree or continue reading the steps below.
1. Fold your napkin in half (into a long rectangle) and then half again so it becomes a square.
2. Rotate it to a diamond and then turn up the bottom edges. Starting with the top edge, fold it so it is 2cm below the top point of the napkin. Then fold up the next edge so it sits 2cm below that. And so on, until all the edges are turned upwards.
3. Carefully flip the napkin over and then fold the left and right sides onto each other to resemble a diamond. The video above demonstrates how to do this.
4. Finally, flip the napkin back over to create the ‘branches’. Each of the tips pointing downwards on the face of your napkin tree will need to be tucked under to create a straight row. Do this for all 5 tips and your napkin Christmas tree is done!
