A Lovely Trio
Some of you who visit often know that I am in the middle of a kitchen renovation.
The new counter tops, stainless sink and fixtures were installed last weekend. We will be tiling this weekend.
I wanted some new towels for my "new" kitchen. I searched and searched and couldn't find anything I liked...... so I decided to make my own.
When remodelling..... I chose a timeless look. White painted cabinets, black granite counter tops, stainless appliances and hardwood floors. I wanted the same in accessories.
I wanted something classic that also satisfied my love of shabby chic.
I added hand torn ruffles to a set of plain kitchen towels. The ruffles were pretty but not "frilly" enough for me. They needed a little "something". I made a bunch of different sized flowers and roses from strips of fabric, lace and buttons.
Now I LOVE them!
Wishing all of you a happy and safe
Labor Day weekend!

Have a great weekend!
Oh- I love them,too. They are gorgeous. You must be getting really excited now that the kitchen is getting further along. I wish I had gone with a big stainless steel sink now. I did a composite granite sink and it never looks clean- ugh- xo Diana
Your towels are adorable! The flowers and ruffles are so charming :) Even though going thru a kitchen renovation is kind of hectic I find it quite exciting too. Looking forward to the posts about the kitchen.

Oh, a kitchen remodel...how exciting! I would love to have white cabinets! Your towels are so pretty:)
What do you think of all the changes Etsy is making right now? They took away all my good reviews as a buyer and all the appreciation photo's I had left...I was so sad to lose my buyer rating:(
