Step 1:

Lay the napkin the wrong side up, with the top corner facing upwards to make a diamond shape.

Step 2:

Bring the bottom corner to the top and fold the napkin in half.

Step 3:

Bring the right point over to the left point, folding the napkin in half once again.

Step 4:

Turn the napkin so the 90° is pointing down.

Step 5:

Fold the bottom 90° angle up and over the top edge of the napkin so about 2 inches is overlapping leaving a small triangle or point at the top. This will be the bat's head.

Step 6:

Hold your index finger at the center point on the bottom edge of the napkin and fold the right side up at a 45° angle to make one bat wing.

Step 7:

Repeat on the other side. Smooth the napkin with pressure as necessary to keep the folds in place.

Step 8:

Fold the top middle point down by about one inch.

Step 9:

Press the middle of the top edge down to create your bats ears and you’re done; you have a cute napkin bat.
