This DIY Nutcracker Napkin Fold will be a hit at your holiday table all season long.
You just need a few supplies that I am sure you already have.
And, your favorite candy.
Kids and adults alike will love unwrapping these napkins to reveal the sweet surprise inside.
Supplies
cloth napkins (with or without a design in the corner)
velvet ribbon
candies and/or small toys – I used Lindt Chocolates
empty paper towel tubes (depending on the size of your napkin you could use a toilet paper tube)
scissors
Tape – optional
Directions
- Trim the paper towel roll down about 2 inches.
- Place candies and/or small toys inside the tube. You can tape the ends of the tube if the candies try to fall out.
- Lay your cloth napkin down on an angle. If it has a design on it, place the design on the bottom point right side down.
- Place the paper towel tube in the top corner.
- Begin rolling the fabric napkin over the tube until you reach the bottom corner. If your napkin has a design, it should now be showing on the top.
- Tie each end of the napkin with a velvet ribbon. I use about 15 inches of ribbon for each side.
- Trim the ends of the ribbon into dovetails.
- Place the napkins at each place setting.
