Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

All you need is a square napkin. Opt for pastel shades like baby blue, soft pink or mint green to give your Easter table that extra festive touch!

Step 2: Lay Your Napkin Flat

Lay your napkin flat on a clean, smooth surface. Make sure there are no wrinkles or creases to ensure a neat fold.

Step 3: Fold It in Half

Take one corner of the napkin and fold to meet the opposite corner, creating a rectangle shape. Press down on the fold to make it nice and crisp.

Step 4: Fold in Half Again

fold the napkin in half widthwise once more, bringing the shorter ends together again. You should now have a smaller rectangle with four layers.

Step 5: Fold the Edges Down

Take both bottom corners of the rectangle and fold them downwards towards the center of the napkin, creating two triangular shapes, or one large diamond. Ensure that the corners meet at the centerline of the napkin and that the edges are aligned neatly.

Step 6: Fold the Corners In

Fold the corners of your diamond shape up into the center of your napkin.

Step 7: Flip

Secure and flip your napkin over.

Step 8: Fold and Flip Again

Fold the top corner down towards you. Secure your napkin and flip again.

Step 9: Adjust and Fluff

Adjust the folds until they look just right. Then, gently fluff out the top corners of your napkin to give them the bunny ear shape.

Step 10: Display and DAZZLE

Voila! Your adorable bunny ear napkin fold is ready to steal the show at your Easter table. Place it alongside your dinnerware and decorations, and prepare for the compliments to hop in!

With these simple steps, you'll have an egg-cellent addition to your Easter table setting in no time. Happy folding, and happy feasting!
