Embellished Hand Towels home decor

By Admin1 on February 26, 2013 in Holidays, Home Decor, Valentine’s Day

Embellished hand towels are one of my favorite home decor crafts. I think little holiday touches, throughout the house, make everyone smile and turns an ordinary day into something special. Today, I have a DIY project for an embellished Hand Towel. It’s simply a matter of embellishing a store-bought hand towel with ribbons and buttons. You’ll be amazed by how easy the project is and how cute your guest bathroom will look when you hang this cute, embellished hand towel in it!

Supplies for the embellished hand towel:

Pink hand towel (red or white would work too!)
Ribbons and lace trim
Buttons-I used Buttons Galore and More’s Brilliant Pink and Granny’s Button Box Stitched Buttons
Basic sewing supplies

Instructions for the embellished hand towel:

1. Lay the hand towel flat on your work surface. Measure out your ribbons and lace to span the width of the front of the towel. Pin in place and sew them onto the towel.

2. Fold the towel in half in order to establish the center mark of the towel. Place a button on top of the ribbon at the center mark and stitch in place.

3. Sew buttons on either side of the center button.

It’s best to gently hand wash the towel once it has been decorated. Alternately, go ahead and drive your family crazy by telling them the towel is only for decoration and not to be used.
