One of my on-going projects is the kids bathroom. I've been on the hunt for a vintage style yellow floral shower curtain for the tub/shower, instead I found these great floral napkins at Steinmart. They were on clearance and the perfect color and pattern.
AND...
Some cute monogrammed towels, for $15 for a set of 3! I dug around a bit and was able to grab a set for each of my kids with their initial.
And then I got busy! I cut strips, different widths for each size towel, so the fabric would be the right scale for the towels.
Then I hemmed the cut edges, and sewed them hanging off of the bottom of the towel. I would have sewn them higher, but I wanted to leave some space between the monogram and the fabric. (my kids aren't picky:-)
I thought this brown ribbon that I ruffled trimmed it off nicely, however, if added there would be more brown than what I had in mind for the room. (Veering from your original color scheme is a common mistake- so BeWaRe!:-))
So I opted not to use the ribbon, and instead am going to be looking for a different color, more of a blush or aqua to stick to my color palette.
These yellow towels are for my daughter, I got some coordinating but not too girly stuff for my boys. --That'll be up next!
These are awesome!!! Great Job.. You could always ship them to me since the "L" would work for me as well ;) Thanks for sharing -Liz
