Introduction
Some magicians pull rabbits out of hats; others conjure them from the linen closet. Do a little sleight of hand (see our folding guide, below) and — presto, chango — you've whipped up a stylish Easter tabletop that lets guests know they're somebunny special. (Tip: These long-eared lovelies would also be adorable at a baby shower.)
The Details: Sferra Festival napkin, in Blush, $58 for 4, sferra.com. Canvas Home Dauville dinner plate, $35; and salad plate, in Platinum, $25, canvashomestore.com.
materials
- Dinner napkin (we used a 20-by-20-inch dinner napkin for this origami-inspired idea, but a square lunch napkin works too, so long as it’s starched and ironed)
- Ribbon
- Hard-boiled egg
- Black paint marker
steps
-
Fold a napkin into thirds.
-
Fold lower corners up to meet in center, creating a paper-airplane shape.
-
Flip over napkin so seam faces table. Fold in outer edges to meet in center.
-
Place an egg on pointed tip, tie “ears” above it with ribbon, and nestle egg into place.
