</li><li>  With the longest side near you, roll the triangle up until it reaches halfway. Although this part's a little <a href="http://www.wikihow.com/Answer-Tricky-Interview-Questions" title="Answer Tricky Interview Questions">tricky</a>, you'll soon get the hang of it.
</li><li>  Flip the napkin over so that you can't see the rolls. The longest side should still be nearest to you. At this stage, the napkin should look like a a triangle with two tails, both left and right.
</li><li>  Take the end of one tail and roll (<a href="http://www.wikihow.com/Fold-a-Duct-Tape-Rose" title="Fold a Duct Tape Rose">fold</a> it) till it reaches the end of the other tail. When you're done with rolling, tuck the free end into the little pocket at the bottom. The napkin should now look like a torch or a <a href="http://www.wikihow.com/Light-a-Candle" title="Light a Candle">candle</a>, or maybe even a fancy cup holder.
</li><li>  Look for the two flaps inside of your creation. Take them and pull one to the left and one to the right. This is very easy to do, although it's also easy to mess up this step, so perform it carefully.
