There are many instructions for special shapes, some of which we would like to show you today. If you want to fold a cutlery bag, you don't even need any special experience, because the instructions are great for beginners too.
The napkins with cutlery pockets can have a wide variety of shapes. Whichever option you choose dependsto your tasteas well as the rest of the table decorations. You can also try out the simple instructions for folding a cutlery bag spontaneously, as they don't take much time. The ideas are well suited for working together with the children.
Instructions for a simple roll
This guide is very simple and quick to do. This is a roll that you then either tie or fix with a sticker. You can fold the napkins as a cutlery bag by following the instructions. First form a triangle out of the square napkin and place the cutlery on the longer side. Then fold the left corner inward.
Then fold the right corner inwards. Now start rolling the bottom edge of the napkin upwards. Then glue the tip in place as already mentioned. These instructions for folding a cutlery bag are very suitable for last-minute decorations that the children can also help with. Then the cutlery bags will be ready in no time.
with a diagonal stripe pattern
This variant is a little more complex. Start again with a square and fold it in half by folding the left side to the right. Then fold the bottom half up to form a square again. Take the top layer and fold it to the bottom left corner. Then repeat this with the other layers, always pushing them under the previous one and letting it peek out a little.
Only a few steps remain. Now fold the left side back to half of the back. Then repeat the same with the right side. The front now has three stripes. You can distribute the cutlery in all the pockets or just use the top pocket and decorate the rest with flowers.
Kimono missing
We also find this kimono particularly original. You can design this for a theme party. For this you need a larger napkin, which you spread out in a square shape. The rest is easier than you might think at first glance. You can store the cutlery in the collar as well as in the lower pocket.
With corrugated napkins
The self-folded cutlery bag becomes really romantic in vintage style if you use a napkin with a wavy edge or one with lace. You can also perfectly emphasize the edge with such a model. The starting point for folding the cutlery bag is a napkin folded twice (step two of the cutlery bag with a striped pattern). After that, take the corners of each layer down as shown.
Then turn the napkin over and fold the side corners towards the middle. If you now turn the napkin over again, you can fill the finished cutlery bag with the cutlery. These instructions for folding a cutlery bag are very similar to the idea with the striped pattern. If you use a napkin with a straight edge, it will end up looking more elegant than romantic.
Fold ties from napkins
Are you celebrating a promotion or similar occasion? Then this tie is definitely suitable as a cutlery bag. It can again be made of both a fabric andfrom a paper napkinbe folded. This guide is also very simple. The decoration will be a real eye-catcher on every table!
Choose the color of the napkin to suit the occasion. For Christmas, for example, red, white and green are very suitable. All bright and colorful colors are very suitable for Easter in spring. Patterns on the napkins are also always a welcome thing on the table. You can get a very elegant design using the instructions above.

The instructions can be found in the following video. This napkin design is very pretty even without cutlery. You can also replace the cutlery with flowers or simply combine both elements. Decorate her plate at the same time.
This simple idea and instructions are simple and yet very chic. The bag looks very pretty both directly on the plate and next to it, so you can also decorate the plate with other things. When designing the festive table, let your imagination run wild and create an individual arrangement.
Start again with a rectangle. Take the bottom edge in your hand, pull it up and fold it over again, placing the edge on the fold you just created. Turn the napkin over as is. Fold the left side either to the middle or slightly in front of the middle, depending on how wide you want the cutlery bag to be.
Finally, fold the right side over the just folded left side and you're done. Now you can put the cutlery in your bag. There is also enough space left for a few other decorations: spring flowers for Easter, a sprig of mistletoe for Christmas or whatever else you can think of.
in the form of an envelope
This cutlery bag is also undoubtedly pretty to look at. You will receive the instructions again in the form of a video instruction. If your cloth napkin doesn't stay in its folded shape, you can also use an iron to reinforce the folds.
Fold any shapes
This cutlery bag, which you can get in just a few steps, is just as chic. Fold the napkin twice until it forms another square. Fold the top layer of fabric down and turn the napkin over. Now fold the side corners towards the middle, turn the napkin over again and decorate the table with it.
You can decorate both fabric and paper napkins with such lace elements. In principle, a wide variety of things are suitable for decorating the cutlery bag. Use twigs, ribbon, fabric, plush wire, yarn, or flowers. Come up with something and create a unique decoration.
