Remember this hanging towel project that my sister and I worked on together long distance via technology earlier this year? We made a fall version, shown in the linked post, and a Christmas version, shown below.
I spent the afternoon packaging them for gift giving and I thought you might like to see how and what I did.
The first thing I did was turn the towel over with the back facing up and the front facing down.
Next, I took the bottom of the towel part and brought it up to meet the topper.
Then, I took the topper and folded it back up over the folded towel part.
I flipped the whole thing over with the towel side up.
I wanted to include something with the towel, so I chose some quality wooden spoons I purchased at a Mennonite store back during the summer.
I laid the wooded spoon in the center of the towel and wrapped the sides around it, taping them together.
I slipped the towel/spoon inside a plastic bag and tied it in the middle with a ribbon. The bag didn't cover the entire project but left the bottom towel and spoon handle uncovered. I think it turned out well and am well pleased with the end product.
I made a total of 4 for the purpose of having something to give when an unexpected opportunity presented itself. In fact, on the very day that I finished these an opportunity did indeed present itself and now I have 3 left for gift giving purposes.
I hope you've enjoyed seeing how I turned a cute towel into an even cuter gift!
That's it for this post, what are you stitching up and or creating?
