What you need to fold napkins
Both paper and fabric models are suitable for napkin folding. Stronger paper is easier to work with and also offers sufficient stability for complicated motifs.
All familiar figures can be folded with plain paper napkins. If you want to fold printed napkins, check beforehand whether the desired motif will be effective with single-sided or double-sided models.
Where should the napkin be placed correctly?
Good to know (etiquette tip): And where do I place the napkin correctly? When folding napkins, it is best to place them directly on the place setting.
If this arrangement does not fit in with your decorating concept, for example because you have already placed the starter before the guests arrive, the napkin belongs on the top left next to the plate or on the bread plate.
This is because the knives already occupy the right-hand side and the glasses take up the space above them.
If you don't have the time or inclination to fold the napkins, you don't have to do without decorations for a festive table: Fall back on napkin rings.
