I hate the month of January. There’s only one redeeming thing in the whole month-one of my boys has a birthday. Otherwise I think we could just get rid of the month. What do you think? It’s such a sad, cold, depressing month.
I joined up with a few other bloggers who each created a snowflake project: (see all the projects linked up at the bottom of this post)
So, to remind me of the cold I thought I’d make some snowflake hand towels. Wait, I don’t need to be reminded of the cold. It’s like 2 degrees outside right now. So, since I can’t go outside and play, I have to stay inside and craft so I made some snowflake hand towels. How’s that?
Snowflake Hand Towels Tutorial:
Supplies Needed:
Blue and silver fabric
Blue and Silver ribbon
Heat N Bond
Hand Towel
To do this I adhered my Heat N Bond to the back of my 2 fabrics and then cut out my snowflakes (I used my Silhouette but you can use any sort of cutting machine or try it by hand just like you might with paper).
Once they were cut out I ironed them where I wanted them. I staggered the silver just a little off the blue.
Then I sewed the blue and silver ribbon to the bottom part of the hand towel. That’s it. Pretty easy right?
Like hand towels? I also have some for Halloween, Thanksgiving and my favorites-Christmas.

This is so cute! I haven’t really decorated for winter before – by the time my Christmas decorations are away, it seems like it is time for Valentine’s day! lol! Love your Thanksgiving hand towels too. Off to take a little visit around your blog. Enjoy your Sunday!

Very pretty towels. I don’t really love the cold AT ALL either s you’re not alone there. But noooooooooo we really can’t do away with January because my birthday also is in Jan and my twins’ birthdays are also in Jan. Of course, given my age, it probably could be a good thing to do away with the month since it means I would never have to get older again, right? LOL
Sorry, but I like all the months! I have one great big advantage over you, I live in the South. It’s the 13th of January and it’s 60 degrees and yesterday it was 79 wonderful degrees. My friend and I went to yard sales!. I love the towels!
I actually lived in San Diego 2 years ago. January was about the nicest month of the year there. But, it’s been in the single digits here and I am getting cabin fever!
CUTE idea!! I wish it were 2 degrees here!! It’s -15!! UGH!!
I love these! Simple, elegant… classic! :)
