Fancy Napkin #8 - "Bird of Paradise"

How to fold a square napkin into a "Bird of Paradise".
To make the "Bird of Paradise", we're going to follow 8 simple steps.

1. To get started, go ahead and fold a square napkin into quarters, and turn it so the open ends are pointing away from you.
2. Now fold the bottom end up to the top so it forms a triangle.
3. Flip the whole thing over.
4. Next we'll need to fold the two sides in so they meet in the middle, which should be easy to do if you think of like folding a paper airplane.
5. When the two sides are flattened out, flip it over again.
6. Fold the two triangular tabs at the back, in toward the center.
7. Now just fold the triangle in half lengthwise, and cradle it in your hand so that the open ends are facing into your palm.
8. Go ahead and peel back each of the 4 layers inside, and when they're spaced the way you want them, your fancy napkin, is ready to dazzle. This looks awesome with a cloth napkin, but I found you can make it with a paper napkin as well. Just be gentle when you pull the layers apart so they doesn't rip.
