Place the bottom corner on the top corner to form a triangle.
Roll up from the bottom closed edge to the top.
Continue rolling up.
Do not roll up a small remainder. Press the roll flat and then roll up from the left.
Continue rolling up. Leave the two corners sticking out of the roll.
Set up the roll and insert the end into the outermost track of the roll from above.
Pull the two corners sticking out at the top to the side as leaves. Then turn them over.

A rose can be folded or rolled out of a napkin very easily and in no time at all. It is particularly suitable for romantic occasions such as weddings or Valentine's Day. This fold adds extra floral flair to the table decorations. The napkin rose can be placed on or next to the plate. The rose also makes a great impression in a glass together with leaves.
Use a different colored napkin and conjure up leaves to go with the rose! Both can be beautifully draped in a wine glass.
A rose napkin fold can also be used wonderfully outdoors. The rolled-up flower is stable and can withstand gusts of wind. Nothing stands in the way of a romantic dinner in the sunset.
If you are folding a rose, you should choose a suitable color for the napkin. The classic color here is red. Other rose colors also work: white, yellow, pink, orange. If you want to create contrasts, you can also opt for black or dark blue. If you decorate the rose in a glass, you should choose a different color for the leaf napkin. The choice of fabric can be a little more sophisticated. A nice sheen is an advantage here. A paper napkin does not match the romantic motif and should therefore not be used. Preference should therefore be given to single-colored, high-quality cloth napkins that are not too firm so that they are not too difficult to roll up.
