Hi, I'm Rachel for Expert Village. First thing we are going to do is we are going to open the napkin. Pick out what we want on each side of the box. It has to be long enough cause we want to have a little bit inside the box to. I think I'm going to have this on one side and this on the other side. We would have to do 2 sides at once. We can't/if you want you can do all sides at once but it is easier to make 2 sides and then the last 2 separate. So what I'm would do I'm just going to cut it now. So we want to make sure what I want is on the sides and this is on the other side I have most of the rose. So I'm just going to cut it like that. I don't need to have to leave to much space since we are doing it only the 2 sides plus the other 2 later on. So I'm cutting. Now what we would do is separate it from all its layers, just going to separate it. We have 1,2, and this is the 3rd layer. Usually napkins has 3 layers. Some of them only have 2 but usually they have 3. So you have to make sure that you stay only with this thin layer. I'm just going to measure it again to make sure what I want is on the right side.
