Napkin Folding Ideas for a Kid’s Party

I recently received a wonderful book for review called Top 100 Napkin Folds. Now that temperatures are cooling down in Dallas, it’s time to think about outdoor patio parties on cool fall evenings or a birthday party for you child at a local park.

My daughter loves making any party special; that might include creating place cards for the guests, writing out the menu or fun napkin folding so I was delighted to flip through the 100 examples of napkin folds in this book. The illustrations are incredible and the instructions are easy to follow. Holidays are right around the corner, too. This book would make a great gift for your favorite hostess.
