Napkin wave is a simple folding technique and requires only a few steps. Moreover, the napkins do not even need to be unfolded, which saves you time. The finished wave is suitable for many events such as weddings or parties with different themes. It works with paper or cloth napkins.

Here's how it works:

1. Place the napkin with one corner up, so that at the bottom is the corner with the different layers.
2. Now fold the bottom corner of the first layer to the top corner.
3. Take the corner of the second layer and fold it up as well, but not all the way to the corner. Make sure to slide the layer under the first one.
4. Now fold the last layer up and under the previous one again.
5. Now fold the corner of the first folded layer down towards the table so that it is no longer visible.
6. Now the napkin wave is ready and can be placed decoratively on a plate or table.
