DIY 'Romantical' Napkin Folding
Valentine's Day is a date to express love and affection. Therefore, as we draw closer to Valentine's Day, the best advice we can give you is to spend some quality time together in an intimate and romantic dinner at home with your beloved by your side! Yes, falling in love is truly a magical feeling, but capturing the essence of love is about adding a dash of romance to your relationship. Therefore, you need more intimate and artistic yet simple ways to express your love. And as always, Smarty Had A Party has got you covered! To turn the romance up by several notches, we have put together a beautiful DIY Romantical Napkin Folding featuring a lovely red color palette that oozes a whimsical aura and will make your date night unforgettable. Since these are romantic napkins, you can use a flower in their decoration, such as a rose flower, margarita, tulips, etc. Especially if a romantic dinner is preceded by a special occasion, then you can insert or better hide a small gift in the napkin!

DIY 'Romantical' Napkin Folding
Here are three 'romantical' (I make up words when the moment calls for it) napkin folding tutorials to help your table look extra flirty for that special someone of yours.
The Rose Napkin Fold
Smarty products featured in the photo above:
Directions:
1. Fold the napkin in half lengthwise. (Check out all of Smarty's colorful napkins or use the one featured in the picture above: Classic Red Paper Cocktail Napkins)
2. Continue folding half lengthwise until the napkin is approximately 3 inches wide.
4. Place the napkin in a cup (Pick one out from Smarty's excellent selection of Elegant Plastic Drinkware! I used Smarty's Square White Plastic Coffee Mug) and separate/ loosen the folds of the napkin as desired to create a rose-like appearance.
The Layered Heart Napkin Fold
Smarty products featured in the photo above:
- White Square Plastic Plates Dinnerware Value Set
- 6.5" Red Square Plastic Salad Plates
- Classic Red Paper Dinner Napkins
Directions:
1. Position the napkin with one corner facing you and fold two opposite corners to meet in the middle of the napkin.
2. Beginning with one side, fold the napkin like a fan along the length of the napkin in approximately 1 ½ - 2-inch sections to the midpoint of the napkin.
3. Repeat with the second side.
4. Fold the two halves of the napkin together with the folds facing outward.
5. Flatten the napkin along the long edge.
The Flat Heart Napkin Fold
Smarty products featured in the photo above:
Directions:
1. Lay down an unfolded napkin; spread it out flat on the table
2. Fold the napkin in half lengthwise.
3. Fold in half lengthwise again.
4. Fold one end of the napkin at a 45-degree angle to the midpoint.
5. Fold the other end of the napkin at a 45-degree angle to meet the other folded portion.
6. Fold each half of the napkin inward at a 30-degree angle to create a triangle in the middle of the napkin.
7. Fold the outer portions at a 45-degree angle to meet the triangle's edges created in step 5, making the points at the top of the heart.
