Recently, I was sent some surprise goodies from I Love to Create for a Fall Craft Challenge. We were challenged to create a project for fall using whatever supplies they sent to us.
One of the items I received was a Tulip Tie-Dye & Paint Kit. I tried my hand at doing a tie-dye project, and it was a total craft fail. I may share that with you sometime in a future post. I did tie-dye a t-shirt as well and it turned out really cute, but I wanted to think outside the box with the supplies we were given, so I had to go back to the drawing board.
The other item I received was some really cute Tulip Glam-It-Up! Iron-On Fashion Designs in a Halloween theme. I got a set of spooky eyes, a pumpkin and a witch. Right away when I saw these I knew what I wanted to do. So, I set off to the store to find some Halloween colored towels.
- Tulip Glam-It-Up! Iron-On Fashion Design
- Towel
- Ribbon
- Sewing machine and coordinating thread
- Iron/ironing board
- Thin cloth
Step Nine:
Cover with a thin cloth. Press and hold iron over design for 45 – 60 seconds. Allow it to cool.
Turn your fabric over and iron on the back of the design for 15 – 20 seconds.
Now you are all done and you can enjoy your new fancy towel! I completed the same steps for both towels. I will primarily be using these towels for decorative purposes, but if you need to wash them, use the gentle cycle and line dry.

Very Cute! I won’t spend that much time on my hand towels but I do have a towel band thing I made and you’ve inspired me to make a halloween themed one. Thanks!
