For this craft you will need:
- green square paper or fabric napkins
- gold card
- mini pegs
- glue
- string, name tags and small tree decorations (optional)
Step 1: Folding the Napkin
Lay a green napkin in front of you so it looks like a diamond. Fold the left and right corners into the middle at such an angle that it creates a point at the top.
Step 2: Shaping the Christmas Tree
Fold the bottom flap upwards to the middle to make a long triangle shape, like a Christmas tree. Turn over so the flat side is facing up.
Step 3: Adding the Star and Securing
Cut out some stars from the card and attach to the flat side of a peg using glue. Clip the peg to the top of the napkin to act as a star on the top of the tree – this will also hold the folded napkin together.
Step 4: Decorating and Final Touches
Drape string around the napkin trees, if you like, and clip a name tag under the peg to use the napkins as place settings. You can also ‘decorate’ the napkins by scattering over small tree decorations.
