I found these sweet red and white towels at Walmart to use for my latest project~~
So let me show you the wood architectural element first and then I'll tell you about the towels~~
I bought several of these wooden trim pieces on the cheap~~
painted and added a large hook from Hobby~~
So cute to hold kitchen towels~~
So I bought two types of kitchen towels from Walmart~~BEWARE~~
prewash first (they do shrink a bit)~~I used my fabric paints and stencilled on my design~~
The wider stripe (on the bottom of the towels) come in package of 3 and are a heavier waffle weave~~
The other type comes in set of 5; both were about $5.00 and well worth a sweet project~~both types are 100% cotton which I love for the kitchen.
I love stuff like this in the kitchen; don't you?
Have a fabulous day~~I'm heading outside to the garden!

Yes I love things in the kitchen like that...especially reds! Great job!
ReplyDeleteYou have the best ideas! xo
ReplyDeleteThe towels are charming, but I'm really knocked out by the hooks. What a great idea with the architectural salvage.
ReplyDeleteYou made those simple tea towels so cute!! Love the hooks too!
ReplyDeleteMichelle
p.s. May I ask where you found the lovely stencils?
ReplyDeleteThose are so darn cute! I would make some like that in a heartbeat! PLEASE do a tutorial on making these!! hugs, Linda
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your sweet comments: I buy my stencils from Etsy and Ebay sellers--I will post about it tomorrow too on my next project (which has nothing to do with stencilling--I promise;)
ReplyDeleteHi Mary, yes, I want it. I don't see an email for you, I don't know how to get you my info. I can't leave it here. Try emailing me again. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteOh I like this!!! Very cute. I think I need to check out Walmart.
ReplyDeleteBest,
Kathy

That is one of my favorite things - when someone takes something ordinary and makes it something extraordinary! Can I ask where you get your fabric paint? Is there a brand that is better than another? What do you recommend?
ReplyDeleteThe paint I've used for my projects isn't technically 'fabric paint'. it works but I'm thinking I might need to get some real fabric paint at some point!
Love your towels and the beautiful hooks you made
