A sustainable Easter table: Folding napkins for a happy Easter.

Spring is coming again and that means Easter is once again just around the corner. Have you already thought about the decoration of the Easter table? Then nicely folded napkins are indispensable. With our wide range of different types of napkins you can make your table totally Easter ready!

Sustainable napkins with FSC® label

Before we dive into napkin folding, let's take a moment to consider the importance of sustainability, in this case during the holidays. Almost all of our napkins are made from sustainable materials and are completely biodegradable. Many of our napkins are FSC® labeled, which means they are made from wood from forests that are responsibly managed. This helps stop deforestation, which is important for reducing CO2 emissions and fighting climate change. When felling trees, FSC® takes into account both humans and animals. The forest is divided into different sections. Each year trees are harvested in a different section, so that the forest can recover properly. Want to know more about the FSC® label?

Folding napkins: Step by step

To complete your Easter table, we've listed two fun ideas for you that will give your Easter table that extra something.

1. A real “egg catcher

Requisites

  • Napkin
  • Ribbon
  • Egg

Step 1:
Lay the napkin open on the table. Then roll up the napkin diagonally. So from corner to corner.

Step 2:
Next, wrap the rolled napkin around the egg and tie the ends of the napkin together with a nice ribbon.

Step 3:
Pull the ends of the napkin apart a bit to form the ears and your creation is done!

 

2. A happy Easter bunny on the table

Supplies

  • Napkin (square)

Step 1:
Fold the napkin completely open

Step 2:
Then fold the napkin in half lengthwise. Make sure the “closed side” of the napkin is at the bottom.

Step 3:
Bring both ends of the napkin diagonally against the center of the napkin.

Step 4:
Bring both ends of the bottom of the napkin diagonally against the center of the napkin

Step 5:
Again, bring both ends of the bottom of the napkin diagonally against the center of the napkin

Step 6:
Flip the napkin over and fold the bottom half upward

Step 7:
Turn the napkin back and fold the left and right sides of the napkin together. This will round the bottom and allow the napkin to stand. Make sure this is secure.

Step 8:
Finally, fold open the ears to make it look like Easter bunny ears.
