DIY Hand Stenciled Tea Towels
As I browsed the Internet one day, I came across a set of tea towels for sale on a website. One towel said, “You Wash” and the other said “I’ll Dry.”
Need to come up with a gift for a large number of people? Hand stenciled tea towels are easy and affordable to make in large quantities.
That’s exactly how my husband and I divide and conquer in the kitchen after dinner, and the tea towels reminded me of the great partnership we enjoy in our marriage. I also thought they would make great gifts for couples, family members, hostesses, and new homeowners.
I wanted to buy the kitchen towels so badly but they were very expensive – almost $40! Sheesh!
So I decided to make my own and ordered a pair of custom stencils from Etsy.com. I picked out the stencil font I wanted to use for the words, and for less than $20 received a pair of 6×6 inch “You Wash” and “I’ll Dry” reusable plastic stencils in the mail.
