Napkin Rose

I don' t know if divulging all of my secrets is a good idea, but I've been in a relationship for almost 10 years so I think it's pretty safe to assume I won' t be needing this trick on any dates any time soon. It has come in very handy. Not only for dates, but at times when friends were feeling down and needed a pick me up or to just use as a decoration this works.

Paper napkins can be found anywhere. Fast food (don't recommend this on a date, but hey, to each his own), restaurants, etc... It's super easy to make.

Step 1. Wrap the napkin around a couple of fingers

Step 2. Pinch off where you want the head of the rose to be.

Step 3. Twist

Step 4. Pull up the bottom corner to form a pedal

Step 5. Twist

And viola you're done! It takes less than a minute and can be done when she's in the restroom or even while you are talking (warning: may backfire and she may think you are being rude and ignoring the conversation--all should be well when you actually finish). Ha! As a point of interest the first person I made this for was also the first person I was with. Coincidence?

Here's a how to video.
