Make a Kitchen Towel Angel
Here's a unique way to present a housewarming gift of a set of kitchen towels. Poems about angels are optional...
Steps
- Gather the supplies needed. These are listed under "Things You'll Need" below. Launder the towels if they are not new.
- Loop the two hairbands together. They will hold everything else in place.
- Lay the hand towel/dish towel flat.
- Starting with one long edge, accordion fold the entire towel in widths of one inch (2.5cm).
- Fold the accordion in half lengthwise and set aside.
- Lay the washcloth flat.
- Accordion fold the washcloth in 1 inch (2.5cm) width folds.
- Fold the washcloth accordion in half and sandwich it around the fold of the hand towel.
- Starting at the loop side, accordion fold the potholder.
- Position as shown.
- Place one hair band around one end of the potholder, then wrap it around the nested towel/washcloth pair. Loop the other end of the hairband pair around the opposite side of the potholder.
- Hang the "angel" by the potholder loop.
