How to Fold a Napkin into Bunny Ears - SavvyMom

Easter is coming up and I’m already contemplating my holiday table setting. I like to keep things simple and stick to bright colours, fresh flowers, and a few seasonal decorations.

And this year, I’m turning our ordinary linen table napkins into bunny ears for a fuss-free way to add a little fun to the table. We use cloth napkins every night, but a few folds (ten, actually) transform this ordinary table item into something festive and seasonal.

Here’s how to fold a napkin into bunny ears:

Start with a large square cloth napkin or piece of fabric. I like 20″ x 20″ , but any large size will do. Be sure the linen is crease free and/or ironed before you start, and place the material wrong-side up on a table or flat surface.
