When you’re having guests over for dinner, it’s time to break out the nice linen napkins. We’re all for a paper towel on a regular weeknight, but company makes you go the extra mile. Instead of just laying a plainly folded napkin on top of each plate, take a few extra moments and create a little art. It’s a simple way to make your table that much more festive.

All you need are the napkins you already have!
