ingredients
- 1 paper, serviette (large)
- 1 cloth, serviette (large)
directions
- Take your square napkin, lay it totally flat before you, then fold it in half horizontally.
- Fold again, this time vertically so that you have before you a square a quarter the size of your original square.
- Only one of the 4 corners will have 4 open or loose edges. Rotate the square before you so that it looks like a diamond with the four open edges pointing to the top.
- We will call the points on your diamond shape East, West, South and the open edged bit, North.
- Starting at the East point, accordion fold the serviette until you are at the West point. Keep a firm hold on the East/West points once the accordion fold is complete, and you will see that you have a bigger fan at the top (the top has 4 open points of the serviette) and a smaller fan at the bottom.
- Take the bottom point of the bottom fan and curl it up upon itself like a snail shell until you are almost at the East/West points in your other fingers. The snail shell curl will anchor the fan in the glass and help it to keep its shape.
- Place the fan into a wine or water glass and you will have a small standing fan in a semi Fleur de Lis style but with smaller side points.
- Arrange the pleats to that they are even and neat.
