Valentine Dish Towels and a Giveaway!

This giveaway is now closed! Congrats to Kelly!
I spent most of the morning yesterday avoiding laundry working on these SUPER cute Valentine Dish Towels!
 I love having an excuse to make something pink and girly and ruffley! Plus this was the perfect first project for me to finally put my ruffler to work:)
 One of the best things about these dish towels is how easy they are to make....and it doesn't hurt that they are pretty inexpensive too. I picked up a couple different kinds of white dish towel/sack clothes at Walmart and Target a few weeks ago, and I found some really cute pink/red/Valentine fabrics and ribbons at Hobby Lobby. A few ruffles, a few snips with my pinking shears, a few straight stitches and I had some SUPER cute Valentine dish towels:)
 But the very best thing about these SUPER cute Valentine dish towels is that I am giving TWO of them to one of you!

Barbara said...

I probably won't do this right because my memory is so messed up with my meds. But I do love your kitchen towels. I want to try to make something like this, but I am not very good at sewing.
My decorations so far this year are a cute chandelier that I made with picture strip hearts which you can see on my blog. I also made a subway art and placed it in a picture frame. I posted this on my blog too with links to where I borrowed the ideas. We have a Valentine's brunch this will be our second year. The whole family comes over and we make all kinds of goodies, I usually have a little giveaway of something I made. Last year I made some heart shaped soaps.

Leslie said...

I have been totally hum-bug about Vday in years past. If I have time, this year I might frame a free printable, make a cupcake liner wreath, and possibly a Vday banner. I also might make a centerpiece with some pink carnations and red hots. And...if I don't win these dish towels, I might make some of these! :)
